Accidentally formatted Garmin DriveSmart 6.0 and DriveSmart 5.1

I was attempting to format my 2 micro SD cards on my MAC.  Well, I ended up formatting the entire device on both systems.  I cannot get my MAC to recognize the devices, I tried to download the base software.  I contacted Garmin support, they stated these are nothing but boat anchors now.  I am having a hard time believing these cannot be restored.  I know it was an idiotic mistake on my part, but again, I just can't believe there is no solution.  Having a hard time throwing them in the trash.  Looking for affirmation these are now trash.  I told the tech I have system backups going back to 2015, he said it still would not recognize either unit.
