Yes, but it depends on what/why you are asking. There are many utilities such as Partition Magic that you can run to reformat/repartition or scan a hard disk to retrieve data from previous formats/partitions, etc. Undelete and ER Lite are two data recovery utilities that I have used that work, if that is what you are asking. The previous data is still available assuming it hasn't been overwritten or destroyed using other more secure means. If your question can be more direct, a more direct answer can be given. Hope this helps.

A CD/DVD, visual. As the CD is filled a brighter silver band radiates from the center. The thicker the band the greater the use. Floppy or hard drive, check the formatting. For pre-formatted drives there are diagnostic tests that can determine previous use.
