I have formatted a HDD with 2 partitions.
DiagnosisThe front part (first sector) of the HDD contains the boot loader and the file information regarding the partition of the HDD.
The front part (first sector) of the partition also contains the information about each partitions.
If an HDD has multiple divided partitions and the whole HDD is formatted, than the partition information located in the front part (first sector) will be initialized. This is why partitions from before formatting cannot be found in the future. However, the partition information of each partition still exists, which is what make recovery possible.
