Is there any hope for my HDD Data, Can my 2TB HDD be Recovered? - The data can't be accessed and Parameter is Incorrect error, Quick Formatted 2x

[hawk3017]

Hi, I would like to ask if there is a hope for my drive, Yesterday, I planned to backed my data off my 2TB HDD to a 10TB HDD that I bought for back up (The file system for my drive was exFAT, I didn't know back then that exFAT is prone to corruption)

But when I plugged it in, the windows recognized it but I couldn't accessed the data in the drive, the disk became 100% on the task manager and I mistakenly formatted the HDD 2 times, (quick format) the first one to exfat and the second one to NTFS. Can a data recovery service actually recover this hard drive. Because I gave up on recovery softwares, the software just won't load up. Also, when I tried to open disk management, the software freezes when the drive is connected to my laptop. 

 

File below is the screenshot of the state of my HDD.

As long as you did quick format it can be easily recovered,

It's typical of bad drives to cause such issues,they can take a long time to respond,

I bet that if you will wait a hour it will eventually load.

if the format is the normal format, not the quick format, will it take a long time to format it? mine seems fast, i was using diskpart fs quick command. I'm making sure that it's quick format

The drive is in bad shape physically. If the data on there is really important go to a professional, but from the look of things it'll be a complex platter/head swap. You're not going to help anything by formatting it, quite the opposite...

1 smart thing to do is remove the HDD from the device, as any usage can degrade the drive more and more, making recovery harder the longer it is used/active.

In your situation it's a really bad idea to format the drive.

You need a data recovery service.
