Learn to recover Your lost data in hard disk

how to recover ur lost daa in hard disk when you accedenally forma it
Most of the time when we format our hard drive we usually will choose quick format method. Usually we hate to wait for such long format process. Actually there is a vast difference between quick format and thorough format process. Thorough format process erases or overwrites the each and every clusters of your hard drive and resets the partition table indexing. While Quick format process only resets the partition table or hard disk index table.
If you have done quick format to your hard drive then there may be higher chances of data recovery as there are such softwares that can fetch for each clusters and assemble the fragmented data from each clusters to some solid and usable file.
