... Is there still a way to recover that disk? Even if it means with a hexeditor (I am willing learn, who can initiate me into the deep secrets of filesystems) This disk gets backed up every night, but we got stroke by a lightening during the day cutting of all power.

Have you tried ddrescue, yet? It is on the DVD. The rpm is called ddrescue while the command is called dd_rescue. Type 'dd_rescue -h' for usage info. Good luck, Alex.
