How to recover a formatted Linux drive?

Formatted an external hard drive to 1 terabyte, writing a boot image of Xubuntu to it (only 1 extra GB.). Of course, by accident. There are a lot of photos dear to me on the disk that need to be restored
. Before formatting, the disk was with one partition, it seems to be in NTFS.
What is Linux data recovery software? If anyone can help with specific commands, I will be even more grateful.
Does it even make sense to try to do this on Linux, or is it better to try from under Windows?
Well, in general, is there any hope of recovering the data, what do you think?

Under Linux, you will find little useful for such a task. I advise Runtime GetDataBack for NTFS under Windows.
