I can't imagine *any* filesystem saving my data if the disk has been placing blocks in the wrong place for five minutes during intense writes (which was what happened here).
reiserfsck is not going to be any luckier here than any other repair tool because the data is *overwritten*. --rebuild-tree is not magical (any tool which can be misled by the *contents of files* deserves a rather different word to describe it).
