It will depend on what happened to the drive.
Was it re-written? Formated only?

Free version. It has been great at finding lost file systems. If it can find your filesystem, then order the paid version. It's very affordable.

On a reinstalled OS over it, I doubt that you can get the files with full names and folders.
Maybe a RAW recover, but you will loose that.

what was the file system prior to installing OS ?
what OS you have installed.

as already mentioned it is difficult to get the original structure on a over written drive.

good luck
