Recovering data after quick format (Win7/NTFS)

Quite a long time ago, I had this HDD giving me

1. CRC Errors then,
2. The message that I need to format my HDD. Partition shown as RAW. Sometimes it seem to connect/disconnect (Drive appears/disappears in My Computer) intermittently. Sometimes, I see NTFS and my data for a short period but trying to copy always fails, it seem to disconnect/get CRC errors
3. I tried using Ubuntu to recover the data, but I am probably not a good Linux user, Drive is not shown in GParted, I think I tried fdisk too
4. Then I tried formatting many times but I always get Drive is not accessible or something like that

Now I managed to format my drive, it doesn't connect/disconnect intermittently anymore, I want to try to recover some data. What should I do/use.

I am currently trying out EASEUS Data Recovery Wizard but its taking a long time ~70hrs, its a 500GB HDD. I still got 0 files found, not a good sign after ~40mins. I am not sure I choose the right option tho, I did "Complete" I think

yes, there are methods but the software is expensive and even then I wouldn't hold out much hope of recovering much in your situation. After one format possibly. Having formatted multiple times though, I'm sorry but you're pretty much out of luck.

actually, those format always fails, I only managed 1 format

What you are describing still remains a damaged drive to begin with. You are welcome to price data recovery from reputable companies that specialize in it. It's not something the average person can afford.

Many times with quick format? That doesn't mean anything. Quick format overwrites almost nothing. So if the drive is functional, you should be able to recover data.
