This depends completely on the method of deletion. If you are issuing rm -rf on this secondary mounted partition you will never get those files back without using a file system that allows you to restore from a previous snapshot or you have backups.



You can however use trash-cli or create an alias like described in the related answers here and here to delete things from the command line and place them in a "recycle bin". If you use a graphical file manager like Nautilus or Dolphin, things deleted from mounted partitions typically go to a "recycle bin" by default.



Install trash-cli using yum install trash-cli



Delete a file by issuing trash-put /path/to/file



Use trash-list to see what is in the trash currently and use trash-restore to restore the deleted file. And to empty the trash you simply issue trash-empty. Using trash-empty 30 clears out all files that have been in trash for 30 days or longer.



Alternatively you can add an alias to your .bashrc that you will use instead of rm that user Kusalananda does in this answer.




alias trash='mkdir -p "$HOME/.trash" && mv -b -t "$HOME/.trash"'
