i have 3TB internal HDD. i went to wipe data from other HDD but by mistake i started wipe date on this 3TB HDD for only 3 or 4 second before i realized that is the wrong HDD so i stop it.
after that it windows give me a massage to format the HDD, but i didn't formatted, because i have more than 2TB of projects on it.
on disk management it give me it information as Raw drive, healthy and the device status is working properly.
i tried to recover it by using easeus partition master/ partition recovery wizard, but it didn't showed up.
in testdisk it gave me

boot sector
Status: Bad

Backup boot sector
Status: Bad

- active partition recovery gave me this information in the picture:

Hey there, Ahmad!

Seems like you corrupted some data with this interruption.
This error is the result of data on the disk somehow having been overwritten or otherwise damaged.
I'd suggest first to try with another computer.
If you still can access your drive, back up those projects ASAP.
