Macbook Pro with Touch Bar On-board SSD Data Recovery
Send an e-mail enquiry to IT-Tech Online Mac Repair Specialist
Data recovery has been simple until Apple introduced touch bar models in 2016. The SSD drives in these A1706 and A1707 models are non-removable and soldered to the logic board. A special tool will be used to connect to a port called a “lifeboat” of the non-functional logic board and recover data. In practice the tool alone cannot help much as the majority of dead Macs were destroyed by liquid damage and the "lifeboat" will be gone in most cases. We need to repair the particular section of the logic board to the point that a working "lifeboat" and power can be delivered to the SSD chip safely for data recovery.
