The most likely cause of smoke would be the electronics on the HDD it’s self. If this is the case then a new enclosure won't work neither will putting it directly into a PC via the IDE or SATA cable.

The trick here would be to buy an identical model HDD (the drive inside the enclosure) and then swap the electronics board over. These normally just unscrew.
