"fsck -n -b 32 /mnt2/dev/wd0e"  got me zillions of errors

paraphrased it goes like:

EXCESSIVE BAD BLKS I=32
INCORRECT BLOCK COUNT I=32 (720 should be 324)
INCORRECT BLOCK COUNT for I=333, 348, 350, 352, 358, 362, 365, 372, 373,
374, 375
PARTIALLY TRUNCATED INODE I=449
INCORRECT BLOCK COUNT for I=449, 467
PARTIALLY ALLOCATED INODE I=536, 537, 541, 546, 552, 560, 561, 562
UNKNOWN FILE TYPE I=563, 564, 565
PARTIALLY ALLOCATED INODE I=571, 640, 648
UNKNOWN FILE TYPE I=649
PARTIALLY ALLOCATED INODE I=650 - 654
UNKNOWN FILE TYPE I=655
PARTIALLY ALLOCATED INODE I=656, 657 ...
INCORRECT BLOCK COUNT I=713
PARTIALLY ALLOCATED INODE I=2688
more of the same, including some massively incorrect block counts:
INCORRECT BLOCK COUNT I=2714 (778139497 should be 0)

[etc]

** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames
DUPS/BAD IN ROOT INODE
REALLOCATE? [yn]

extensive mixture of the below error types:

ZERO LENGTH DIRECTORY
BAD TYPE VALUE
DUP/BAD
BAD INODE NUMBER
UNALLOCATED
DIRECTORY CORRUPTED
MISSING
DIRECTORY ?: CONTAINS EMPTY BLOCKS
DIR=?
FILE=?/..
? IS AN EXTRANEOUS HARD LINK TO A DIRECTORY ?

[dunno if it changes from there I gave up on pressing n after the first
couple of  hundred]

It seems to be much the same for wd0a, wd0b etc


what are my chances if I use -y

fsck -y -b 32 /mnt2/dev/wd0a

Is there any way I can recover any of the files? is there a tool which can
let me look through what's still there?
