My apologies in advance for being a newb.
I moved all my data from a number of drives onto my new Seagate 3Tb drive.
Shutdown laptop and went home. Connected enclosure to same laptop at home and booted up. Drive came up as a RAW drive.
In a bit of a panic. Wedding pics and pics of kids amongst other files are all gone.
Techie at work instructed me to format drive and then run recovery utils.
Formatted drive as instructed (NTFS), but another friend advised me to use TestDisk.
Will I be able to recover my data, or has formatting the drive cost me everything?
Thanks in advance.
Iqbal
