BAD SUPER BLOCK: MAGIC NUMBER WRONG
LOOK FOR ALTERNATE SUPERBLOCKS? yes
SEARCH FOR ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK FAILED. YOU MUST USE THE

Re: Drobo FS damaged and wont mount on OS X
Looks like the remaining solution is to try PhotoRec to recover some data but original filenames won't be recovered or try some commercial data recovery tools, they may have better success in your case.
