What I meant is that when I do "zpool create" on a disk, the entire

what was on it is potentially recoverable.

If so, is there a tool that can help with such recovery?

I can't answer this in detail, but, to borrow from Tim O'Reilly, think of it as the text of a book where you've lost the table of contents and the first few chapters, and thrown all the remaining pages on the floor...
