[SOLVED] Accidentally formatted my backup drive, need help.

[fatalshot808]

Hello,

So I need help recovering my master boot table (I think thats what it is called) on my back-up hard drive. Basically I quick-formatted it by accident and I was wondering if I could recover the MBT on it so all the files would show the way they were ?

I have not written to the drive since and luckily it's a secondary drive. I guess if I couldn't do that would you guys recommend any recovery software I could use to undelete everything?

If, as you say, it's a backup drive, why can't you simply restore the data from the original source ?
