Linux Formatted my SSD without telling me. Any Hard Recovery Specialists?
So I set up a partition on my HDD of 100Gb for the operating system. I set up root, home, and swap area all within that partitiong of my 2Tb HDD. I restart my system and find Linux Ubuntu has gone ahead, took control of my SSD, and formatted the whole thing. I had entire projects for applications that were complicated and almost finished. I don't have the money to spend on giant back ups. I figured a partition would be safe enough. Then Linux did this to me. I wanted to know if there are HARD Recovery specialists, like the people who recover formatted disks. I know it would probably be extremely expensive. But I just lost most of my livelihood and am shaking. Apologize in advance if I broke any rules.
