Formatted Hard Drive
hi, this is my first post and i apologize if i accidentally break any rules!
about a year ago, i tried doing some kind of setting reset because i installed new ram and i read that i needed to do a reset that would keep my files but allow my computer to properly use my ram or something.
i usually use my PIN to log in, so when it wouldnt let me use my PIN, i couldnt remember the password i hadnt used in like 3 years. so i transferred my data to a 1TB USB (i know better now…) my dad gave me, and then formatted the drive so i could use it again.
well the USB didnt save ANY of the info it said it did, and now ive lost nearly 1TB of data. ive been hesitating to get it recovered because of the cost but i need to bite the bullet. is this something Geek Squad can recover for me? i installed a few programs before realizing the USB was faulty, and i understand that some data cant be recovered because i overwrote it.
TLDR: formatted hard drive, can geek squad recover it?
