You've just learned a valuable lesson, the hard way, about the value of backups. A dropped drive is not going to be recoverable by anything you can download via the Internet, and every time you mess with it you further reduce the probability of a successful recovery. If the data is that valuable then you have no choice but to take it to a professional recovery service and pay the price. However, keep in mind that even they do not guarantee 100% recovery for the price paid.
