Had no partition

So after many hours of Analysing, searching and reading I am ready to ask for help. I have a 2TB HDD (ext4) that had no partion on it (I don't know why?). I was running Ubuntu 12.04 on a seperate SSD. I got another SSD and was installing Windows (dual boot) when it created a small partition on the 2TB for backup and restore. But of course everything else was wiped.

When I run testdisk it choses the non partitioned media.
Superblock gives:
> ext4 0 0 1 243201 80 63 3907029168 [2TB]
superblock 0, blocksize=4096 [2TB]
superblock 32768, blocksize=4096 [2TB]
superblock 98304, blocksize=4096 [2TB]
superblock 163840, blocksize=4096 [2TB].......

List any of those:
No file found, filesystem may be damaged.

When I ran Analyse:

Structure: Ok.

When I List files of ext4 I get the same:
No file found, filesystem may be damaged.

Any Ideas?...or did I kill it with Windows?
