I had to reinstall windows 7 on a new C drive that was 2 TB large, but wasn't stock with the computer when I bought it. It came stock with 2 500 Gb hard drives.

After formating what I thought was just the C drive, installing windows 7, I lost my second D drive to a stock system image, and the drive is shoing a size of only 100mb now, down from the stock 500 gb.

Any hope of me recoverying the data I lost and getting this back to normal again, with out spending huge $ on more services or software ?

Thank you for any advice

don't worry about that. there is always light at the end of tunnel. i have faced this problem in my laptop. you lost only 500GB drive but i lost the whole 1TB HDD with lots of info, software, documents etc.
all you need is "Easeus Data Recovery Wizard Professional" and a portable HDD to restore data. I recovered almost 90% data using this process.
let me know if need further help on this.. wish u good luck
