Format Hard Drive

As we know, when we perform disk format, the dialog box reminds that it will erase all data on the disk. Actually it's just an appearance. The Operating System resets the FAT or MFT on the disk. The reason that you can no longer see the files under Windows is that the MFT tells the Operating System that the drive letter does not contain any files, but the files are still there. That's why we could perform format restore to get those files back. To restore format means transfer the files on the formatted hard disk or partition to a separate one.
