Diskpart clean the wrong hard drive

I need help mounting back a drive that was dispart cleaned and i had 2500 gb of data on it.
I cant find it anymore in my computer and it showed up on disk management but both of them were unallocated.
I tried tools like recuva but i cant find the drive on it as its not mounted
Any help as this is urgent i do not want to lose that data.
Ive heard all ive done is remove partition table so i need to recover the table and get my data back.
Answer #1
Well, I personally never used Recuva , But any decent data recovery app should allow you to pick
the HDD itself and not just the partition! I suggest you give file scavenger a go: http://www.google.com?t=18461279
Do keep in mind that if you’re able to find your data, You must recover it to a different HDD!
This is data recovery 101 – Data is only recoverable til overwritten, Hence cannot be restored to the same
Partition/HDD it was originally deleted from (Unless you wanna render it useless!)
I suggest you be more careful in the future (And start maintaining backup from now on!)
Answer #2
I wonder if anyone knows if i can rebuild the partition to avoid recovering it to another harddrive
the drive i have is 2500gb and the only other drive i have that is large is 2000gb
i have only diskpart clean the drive and i dont think that deleted the data but messed up the partition table i just need to get access back to the data without transfering it away, infact i tried the program but cant even read the drive or find it.
diskpart clean all is the command to wipe the drive.

You might be able to do that with testdisk or active partition recovery, But if you ask me, It’s not the right
way to go about it. Data recovery is done best on a read-only basis. By writing any new data to the affected drive (Even if it’s just the partition table) you risk making things worse than they already are!
infact i tried the program but cant even read the drive or find it.
By “program” you mean the one I suggested?
Have you checked under “look in”? It should list the HDD itself (I.E “Disk 0 465GB”)
Answer #4
I tried it over again and got it to work,
Thanks now i searched the drive and did a quick it came up after a few seconds, when i did the long scan it said 16 hours.
Now i dont have another 2 tb drive to recover the data to but i will have to order a new one some time and order it in just to recover the data and then put back onto the main drive.
I can currently had a “superscan” on active partition to see if there are any errors on the drive and see if that could repair but thats giving me a 4 and half hour wait, anyways seeing as its not good to try to recover the drive ill leave the one i had running to finish and then just recover it to another harddrive i have to order.
Shame i cant just undo the diskpart clean, that took 2 seconds to do but will take hours to undo.

Whenever you are doing anything to your computer and you have more than one physical disk, my advice is to unplug the sata and power from any disks you do not want to screw up. When you finish shut down replug your other drives and reboot. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY. For example I have four physical hard drives whenever I do a fresh install of WIN 7 the only drive that is plugged in is the one where my C: partition is going to be installed. That way nothing can be accidentally wiped or overwritten.
