Just put your head up and move on. i have lost so much  stuff recently and past sure you in the beginning you find you need something but as time goes on you forget and move on. but i would if i were you if it does not spin bring it in to a computer repair store they will remove the platters and retrieve all the data. dont do it your self it has to be done in a static dust free sterile zone.  but if it spins the you are in luck there are some programs i have used to recover lost data on a partitioned hdd or a hdd that has gone rouge they recover what ever you want they take a long time but they work.

please tell me you tried some data recovery before you r3eformatted it as i royally :censored:ed up my drive once when i forgot to do something and some :censored: happened but i then ran some data recovery software and got probably 98% of my files back the other 2% were slightly corupted but they were like 800mb video files etc that had corrupted down to like 16mb so i only had the first few bits of the video. but thats ok as i got them backed up someware i think

However today I was brutally raped by a door handle, and none of my friends helped me up off the floor after ten minutes, instead they all teabaged me, all 10 of them...
