I don't have any corrupted hard disks right now, but just in case it happens anyday, I want to know which data recovery software is the best.

Also, give me some tips to avoid overwrite to the HDD after it has been corrupted so that most files can be recovered.

PC Inspector File Recovery is a free data recovery tool. It supports FAT and NTFS file systems. It can find partitions automatically even if the boot sector is damaged. It's a very small download at close to 6 MB.

TuneUp Utilities 2008 has a reasonably good recovery tool

TuneUp Utilities 2008 won't find files in case the HDD is formatted. Some good recovery apps are fileScavenger and R-Studio. RecoverMyFiles is also a good option.
