A:
Why, you would go to your nightly back-ups and restore the files. You do have a backup solution in place don't you? Because if you don't, then you're out of luck.
In theory, if you stopped the server and yanked those hard drives right now, then forensic data recovery could POSSIBLY get some of the files back.

as long as the hard drives are not in a remote data center on a shared server

This might not be relevant, but: the one time this happened to me I was able to decompile the executable. The result wasn't perfect, but it got all the really tricky bits back.

IF. You don't have backups. IF you're hosting is in a remote hosting facility call them ASAP. and ASK if they have an automated BACKUP. You may just be lucky.
