Please help! I was trying to create a recovery drive on my Dell Laptop running Win10;
by mistake I used the drive where my Seagate Backup Plus of 3TB as the drive for the location of the recovery drive. The operation reformatted the Seagate drive. By this, I lost all the data on the Seagate which I saved through the years. Also, the Seagate drive was formatted to become 32GB capacity. Questions please:
1, Can I recover my old data? If yes, how?
2, If I can not recover my old data, how can I reformat the Seagate drive to recover the 3TB capacity so I can reuse the Seagate drive?

You've already overwritten the data, which might make the recovery even harder for you. I'd strongly advise you to consider a professional assistance with this. You can get in touch with your HDD manufacturer's customer support for any data recovery company referrals.
