I tried a few data recovery softwares but I should've used them just after the format which I didn't and now they don't show any deleted files but it's ok, let's not cry over lost wallets.

I thought of something, 'DVDs'. They're perfect, cheap and non re-writable and all one needs to do is burn some wallets put them in a sealed plastic bag and throw them in the shoe box, problem solved, don't even have to worry about losing any data because you can't format them R-Dvds. Cheesy

I am a genius! Undecided

dvd have their own problem... most dvd become become unreadable after few years.
so best bet is dumpprivkey and print into paper or engraving them to something solid. silver or gold.

I have some old movie dvds that still work pretty well and they're like 5-10 year old dvds.

yes, they use good quality dvd which can last more than 10 years but honestly dvd are fragile dont scratch them on top or back and keep moisture away.  i lost half of my pic and document because i keep them in cd and dvd.

really the only safe way is etching priv key / brain wallet secret code on ring which im planning to make them btw.

EDIT : if you still want to use dvd at least use multiple backup in multiple medium

I'm sure those files can be recovered as long as u don't write/save data on the disk.
