Formated (partly overwritten) HDD

Hi
first thank you, Christophe! Merci beaucoup! Few times ago i could easily recover and SD Card with vacation pics!
Therefore i came back here, because i accidentally formatted and (partially) overwrote an external HDD.
I was planing to create an SD Card with a raspberry boot image and selected the wrong drive- so i created this on my HDD were are a few files that i would like to recover.
Initially the HDD was with NTFS and now after formatting and copy the raspberry image there it has a small ext4 and a fat32 ( and a huuuuge empty space).
On the old NTFS i had a fewarchives, tar, zip, gz and 7 zip as well a few truecrypt containers that i would like to restore some how.
is there any hope that photorec can return the truecrypt container?
I have checked a example container with https://www.cgsecurity.org/photorec/ but it says "413 Request Entity Too Large"
again thank you very much for your work. it left me not tottaly hopeless
sincerly
Pierre
