Need help

I have accidently formatted my external hard disk but by using recuva i am able to see most of the files which has been deleted.

Its around 500GB of data and I don't have that much space in different drive.

Can I recover the data one by one in different drives and come back to all the recovered files section or I will have to scan it again?

Waiting for replies :)

Yes, you can select a number of files > recover them > return to the scan results > select different files > recover them somewhere else > continue as needed - you will not need to rescan in-between.
