What is unallocated space

"Hi, dear support. A few days ago, I found my portable HDD suddenly showed as unallocated space and it didn't appear at "My Computer", but shown in "Disk management" as unallocated space. Those files in the HDD was very important to me and I didn't have any backup of those. I was trying to recover those files and I didn't format the HDD. Is there any solutions?" - from Amanda
"I have a external HDD which was used to backup things... I dont know what happened to it but now when I plug it into my PC it's detected and doesn't come up in my computer. I go to computer management and the whole drive shows up as unallocated space with no partition... is it still possible to recover my old data on there or not?" - from Chelsea
