Each USB device has its own storage capacity and appearance according to its manufacturer company, but all of them act same when we use them in our devices. Nowadays, every electronic device, which provides USB port support, can store digital stuff in these storage medias. Therefore, all Mac systems also use USB devices and blu-ray discs to store data. However, data loss chances are almost equal with Mac as well, like other operating systems.
Whenever you accidentally format USB devices or Blu-ray discs, the file system mark the deleted space as empty, and it will start counting to reuse the space by overwriting the new data. However, the data is still available in the same place on the storage media, but when you store a new data, it will be overwritten by the old one. Therefore, you can recover your complete lost data from a formatted or deleted disk until you do not use that formatted drive for new storage. Because the chances of Mac data recovery from a overwritten storage area is not possible or very less.
Due to the fact that USB or any other storage media keep the data even after formatting or deletion. Always remember that whenever you are intentionally deleting your data and do not want anyone to bring it back, wipe them completely by the professional tools for the security. This will make your data non recoverable so that it cannot be misused by anyone.
