You say EXT2FS, I presume you mean the Linux EXT filesystem family?
Yes, I am more than passing familiar with recovering data from that.
Unless the files were deleted (and presuming you're running OS X), try
brew (http://brew.sh/) and install ext2fuse. You should be able to
plug the drive directly in and pull files at that point.
Otherwise, you could always go with photorec
(http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec) and have it carve out all
image files from the disk. It'll be a slow process with a 3TB drive
and you'll lose all your naming & directory structure, but it's a
nuclear-powerful last ditch kind of tool.
Further discussion should probably go off-list, as it veers firmly off
course for this list
