Can I Recover Files from a Formatted Hard Drive

Can I recover files from a formatted hard drive?

Recovery of formatted Windows drive is possible with Disk Doctors Windows Data Recovery software. In order to recover data from the formatted drive you need to unplug the drive and connect it to a healthy machine as slave to make it secondary drive. Disk Doctors Windows Data Recovery software must be installed prior to recover lost data. Disk Doctors Windows Recovery Software supports recovery of formatted FAT and NTFS partitions.

Follow the procedure as mentioned in this KB article to make this drive slave on the same or different machine. http://www.diskdoctors.net/knowledgebase/default.aspx?cNode=6I3H0P&pNodes=2Y1U0D

Install the software on the host machine (please make sure that writing further on the same drive would overwrite more data, which will make lost data irrecoverable)
Launch the application
Select the option "Recover your data"
Select the physical drive containing formatted partition
Select the option "Search for lost partition(s)"
Select Thorough Scan" partition search method
Select the older logical drive that you have formatted
Let the software run first level of scan on this logical drive
Once scanning is over, you might not get the data of previously formatted drive, instead you will see data that was stored on newly formatted partition
Select the option "Turbo Scan" and let software scan the drive, once turbo scan process is over you should get the data from your old partition.

I wanted to extend my ultimate gratitude and thanks to you and your team. Not only did your company recover the data quickly and at half the price of other companies, everything was recovered and our office is back on track after the NAS failure. I really appreciate a company doing its business so well as Disk Doctors did; and will definitely sing your praises for all to hear. Excellent customer service all around. Thank you again!

Many special thanks for your support in getting my drive issues handled. I am able to access all the files that were recovered. You guys are great!

I thought I was missing a folder until I realized I was searching under the wrong folder name.
I am happy! We are good and all is well!

Thank you.

What do you do when a power surge destroys your hard drive and you loose hundreds of hours of work, irreplaceable images, and your ability to complete jobs for clients with looming deadlines? My first instinct was to cry, then scream. My IT manager tried and failed to recover my data and recommended that I try a disaster recovery service. We went on line and called several companies, and when we reached the Disk Doctors, we knew we had found a company that could help us. I delivered my toasted hard drive to their Vancouver location late in the afternoon and by 6:30 am the following morning a representative had emailed me with a reassuring message and time line for the work. The following Friday I received one of the happiest calls of my life. My data had been completely recovered. I cried and screamed again, this time with joy! Over the last two days I have been thrilled, delighted, relieved, overjoyed and reassured by the fact that ALL MY DATA is once again accessible. Disk Doctors are now on my top-persons list and I am telling all of my colleagues about their services!!!

Thank you!

My hard drive crashed leaving me without my critical financial information and research that is crucial to my business. After checking various vendors on the Internet, I chose Disk Doctor Labs because of their level of service, and they far exceeded my expectations. Aziz Mirza, the manager of Disk Doctor Labs in Norcross, GA, personally took charge of my account, quickly fixed the problems and returned my restored files within a week on a hard drive that I could return for an account credit. Throughout the process, Disk Doctor Labs kept me informed, responded quickly to my calls and delivered my lost files quickly, efficiently and at an extremely fair price. I recommend them unequivocally.

Thank you!
