    Windows 7 Seagate hard disk shows not formatted error, how to recover data

    I have a Seagate hard disk drive which has been divided into 2 sections (C drive, D drive) on my PC. Now, the D drive is inaccessible and it says the drive is not formatted. Should I format it? But will I lose everything on the drive after formatting?
