I would suggest you remove the hard drive from your system and connect your hard drive to another computer and run CHKDSK command.Then you will get an option to repair or fix your corrupt hard drive.
Try repairing your corrupt hard drive and there are chances that you will recover your data from it.

In case the repair will not bring the data back then atleast you can use your hard drive again and for recovering the lost data you can use the data recovery software available online like Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery to recover your lost data before overwriting the hard drive.
