Comment on How is it possible for the IT experts to recover data that was erased from a hard drive when the storage of said hard drive appears empty?

No, there is no way to store more stuff on PCs.

Hard drives are devices that store 1’s and 0’s. There’s a bit more complication, but the short answer is that you can wipe a file system, but the files are still there.
