It was a RAID0 unfortunately.

If he has it in a RAID 1, could he manually fail the bad disk and try
it from there? Obviously this could be harmful, so a dd copy would be
a VERY good idea(truthfully, that should have been the first thing
that was done).

    At this point, though, you're probably looking at somebody writing
custom code to scan the FS and attempt to find and retrieve anything
that's recoverable.

    You might try writing a tool to scan all the disks for useful
fragments of old trees, and see if you can find some of the tree roots
independently of the tree of tree roots (which clearly isn't
particularly functional right now). You might try simply scanning the
disks looking for your lost data, and try to reconstruct as much of it
as you can from that. You could try to find a company specialising in
data recovery and pay them to try to get your data back. Or you might
just have to accept that the data's gone and work on reconstructing
it.
