Accidently formatted data

My 1 TB WD Passport External Hard Drive data has been accidentally formatted. Please suggest me how to recover my data with logical partitions, now all logical partitions are also deleted and only 1 fully empty drive with 931 GB is visible…

To attempt data recovery you’ll need to buy another 1TB HDD to recover the data too.

I’ve successfully recovered data from a fully formatted HDD using Get Data Back For NTFS software.

But, be aware the recovery process can take a very long time and you need another hdd to recover the data too.

I tried my best to recover but couldn’t succeed according to your suggestion for using Get Data Back For NTFS Software…Can you suggest me any other effective measures??

last resort is a Data Recovery Service … but be prepared (take a seat) when they give you the quote $$$$
