Hard disk is the main storage media of our computer system, where we store all our important files. But we need to format our system’s hard drive time to time when data inside the hard disk occupy complete space or attack by some dangerous viruses etc In other words we format our hard disk due to lack of security and storage problem. Sometimes we forgot to keep a backup of our important files like documents, videos, photos etc before formatting the hard disk. In the early age loss of data made people very irksome and there were no alternatives available at that time to get them back. But today’s scenario is not like that; we can retrieve our precious data even after the hard disk get formatted. Data recovery from the formatted hard disk is possible by using data recovery software.
