Hi, dear.
I bought 200gb hard drive(WD) and fomatted to fat32.
I stored all the data to new hard drive(200gb).  Last night, everything looked fine. I never turn off the compudter...
Next day, when I look up the coMputer, the hard drive's status is unfomated like raw file without any erro.. so i could not open this... reboot the computer... samething...  double clik the hard drive , message pop up like want to fomat?.. Hell no...  Am I lost all the data.?
So today , I am going to send this to recovery centa..
but I am so upset about this hard drive... what happen to hard drive..
How to use this hard drive? Do you want me to use as a two hard drive (100gb+100gb).. Is it better solution?.... I am relly nervous that happen again.. It is kind of nightmare...
Please help me..
Many thx.

 
You're lucky to have chosen FAT32- much easier to recover.
I recovered data from my HD successfully after loosing MBR, corrupting partition table, etc. It works unless data was OVERWRITTEN
