Hi, everyone. My first post here.
I recently accidentally hit "shift+delete" on the main folder in my samsung evo 500 gb external SSD and deleted >300 GB of data. I initially thought since it was a simple delete and I did not overwrite it with anything it should be simple enough to recover the data. I have now used 6 different programs to no avail.
These include Disk drill (paid full version), EaseUS data recovery (paid full version), Ontrack EasyRecovery, Stellar phoenix data recovery, Hetman partition recovery, and Recuva.
Each one of them have returned only 2 files back (only a few kb in size). I have run the deep scan on each occasion which takes more than an hour to complete.
Any advice or guidance will be appreciated. I am certain I did not overwrite my SSD.
Thank you
