Recovering data on a CD-RW

Subject: Recovering data on a CD-RW

Hey everybody,

I have an investigation involving a DVD-RW that has been erased, but not
re-written.

I was wondering if erasing a DVD-RW is like formatting a harddrive where
the data is easily recoverable, or if it actually overwrites the data,
and, if it overwrites the data, are there any techniques to restore it?

Thanks to all who can help!
