Glad to see in the thread that you have located & recovered your files

as a side topic another good recovery tool is photorec

it will scan a drive (even if the partitions have been removed) & recover
anything that looks like a datafile it recognises - you will unfortunatly
loose the file names.

also be very careful who you let have your disk, this app will also
recover files you did not want recovering
(as one young lady at work discovered when she asked for assistance
recovering lost photos), fortunately the engineer who recovered the data
for her was a gentleman & they did not go any further.
