if not, you can recover most files with linux based system rescue cd and "photorec" command - it actually doesn't just recover photos, but all kinds of files.
Ok, first, it was a 2.5in drive (laptop) I had salvaged from an older PS3 and decided to use for storing *ahem* sensitive *ahem* stuff I could not just leave on my desktop. I can just easily remove the external if I had to say... bring it in for repairs or let a friend use my computer. Anyway, the 2.5in drive completely and catastrophically failed with no chance of recovery. It seems as the disk tore itself apart from inside.
I make a separate partition in my HDD and encrypt it to keep all my *ahem* sensitive *ahem* data. What you did sounds like a recipe for eventual disaster... D:
The hell... What in bad luck happen to you?
