Disk recovery 5 months later

[Arcental]

Five months ago I formatted one of my hard drives to install a fresh copy of windows. Now I just remembered that there are some scans of documents that I forgot to make a copy of. What are the chances of recovering those scans at this point?

It doesn't matter how long ago if it was not used.

Exactly, whatever hasn't been overwritten with new files can be recovered. It just comes down to how much new data you've added since then.

Well my hard drive has been near full before so I guess it isn't very likely at this point but I'll try anyways.
