Just by way of update, it's currently at 95,000 of about
100,000 files; so I would expect the Recuva file recovery
to complete by tomorrow morning (day 3):

Of course, the results will be flatter than a pancake; so, 
I will try the other suggested methods; but at least I'll 
wait for this first (Recuva) method to complete.
