Frequently Asked Questions About Mac Data Recovery
Quick answers to common data recovery questions to help you understand our process better.
Can you recover data from Macs with soldered SSDs?
Yes, we can recover from Macs with soldered storage.
Modern Macs with Soldered SSDs:
- MacBook Air (2013 and later)
- MacBook Pro Retina (2012 and later)
- MacBook 12″ (all models)
- M1/M2/M3 MacBooks (all models)
Our Approach:
- Use specialized Mac SSD adapters
- Direct connection to proprietary SSD connectors
- Bypass the logic board entirely
- Extract data even if Mac is completely dead
Even If:
- Mac won’t power on
- Logic board is damaged
- Display is broken
- Water damage to Mac
The SSD itself is usually intact and data is recoverable using our specialized Mac recovery equipment.
Can you recover from a Mac that won't turn on?
Yes, in most cases we can recover data from non-functioning Macs.
Common Scenarios:
Logic Board Failure:
- Mac dead but SSD usually fine
- We remove SSD and connect externally
- Data recovered without repairing Mac
Water/Liquid Damage:
- Mac won’t power on after spill
- Internal drive often undamaged
- Extract drive and recover externally
Power Issues:
- Battery, power supply, or charging problems
- Drive typically unaffected
- Remove and recover data
Display Failure:
- Screen black but Mac may be running
- Target Disk Mode may work
- Or remove drive for recovery
We Don’t Need Mac to Work: We extract data directly from the internal drive, so Mac functionality doesn’t matter for recovery.
Can you recover from formatted Mac drives?
Yes, formatted Mac drive recovery is possible.
Format Types:
Erased in Disk Utility:
- Quick erase: Good recovery chances
- Secure erase: Challenging but may be possible
- Depends on erase method selected
Reinstalled macOS:
- Some data overwritten
- Partial recovery often possible
- Depends on installation size
APFS vs HFS+:
- Both recoverable
- APFS may have snapshot remnants
- HFS+ catalog reconstruction possible
SSD Considerations:
- TRIM affects recovery on SSDs
- Time-critical for Mac SSDs
- Contact immediately for best chances
Critical: Don’t use the formatted drive. Contact us immediately.
Can you recover from M1/M2/M3 Macs?
Yes, we recover from all Apple Silicon Macs.
M-Series Macs We Handle:
- M1 MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, iMac

- T2 or M-series security
- FileVault enabled by default
- Activation Lock concerns
We Have:
- Specialized M-series recovery tools
- Apple Silicon expertise
- FileVault handling for M-series
- Activation Lock guidance
Important: FileVault password or recovery key still required for encrypted M-series Macs.
Do you need my FileVault password to recover data?
Yes, FileVault encryption requires your password or recovery key.
FileVault Reality:
- FileVault 2 uses strong AES-XTS encryption
- Cannot be broken or bypassed (by design)
- Password or Apple recovery key required
- No backdoors exist (even for Apple)
If You Have Password/Key:
- Full data recovery possible
- We decrypt and extract data securely
- Your password never stored or shared
If You Lost Password:
- We can guide you through Apple ID recovery key retrieval

Without Password:
- Data remains encrypted and unrecoverable
- This applies to everyone, including Apple
- FileVault encryption is that secure
Important: Always backup your FileVault recovery key separately.
