I bought a Golden Star external hard drive last month and I saved massive contents on it later. Unfortunately, the portable hard disk drive was formatted yesterday and all files on it were erased. What if I have to access those lost files again? I know I need to get them back from the formatted external hard drive at first to view them. Is there any possible way for me to restore lost data after formatting the portable hard disk drive by error? Help me, please and thanks in advance. –Jacob
