Maybe the information is there on the disk sectors - if you've done quick
format.
Maybe you'll be able to recover some information - when I had to deal with
such situation some tem years ago (Macintosh 9500 Tsunami, SCSI discs, Adobe
Illustator and Quark files) - I dumped a binary image of the disc, searched
for known file headers, and dumped subsecuent 20MB into a file.

You can go to professional data recovery service and they will do same, for
a fee. There is no way to unformat the drive without previously saved
partition table.
