MacBook Data Recovery — dead Mac, data saved.
MacBook won’t boot, liquid spill, dead SSD — we recover data from all MacBook, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models, including soldered storage.
Professional Mac Data Recovery for MacBook & MacBook Pro
At Data Clinic, we specialise in fast and secure MacBook data recovery, including MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and Mac SSD recovery. With over 20 years of data recovery experience across the UK, we’re trusted by both home users and businesses for professional Mac data recovery services.
Common MacBook & Mac SSD Failures We Recover From
- Physical Damage – Dropped, cracked, crushed, or liquid-damaged MacBooks (water, coffee, etc.). Our team uses specialist tools to recover data even from damaged SSDs.
- Boot Failure (Flashing Question Mark Folder) – If your MacBook shows a flashing folder icon, it means the system can’t detect the hard drive/SSD. We can help retrieve the files even when macOS can’t.
- MacBook Won’t Power On – A dead MacBook can still hold all your data. Sudden shutdown, overheating, or no response can indicate power or electronic failure—but data can still be recovered.
SSD & TRIM – Deleted File Recovery
MacBooks use internal SSDs with TRIM enabled, which makes it difficult to recover files once they are permanently deleted. If data has been emptied from the Trash and overwritten, it cannot be restored. However, if the device has failed or the files are missing due to corruption rather than deletion, recovery is still possible.

Data Clinic Ltd – Our Latest Trustpilot Reviews
Brilliant service
Brilliant service. Janice and the lab team are outstanding. Good communication and updates throughout. Files on 2 discs were retrieved, 1 with new heads needed. Good pricing - transparent and competitive. They've been amazing. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again or to recommend them.
Communication was engaging
Communication was engaging. The services offered, potential cost and timescales were clear at the outset. The courier collection and delivery were managed well. A good experience and a positive outcome.
A very effective service
My iPhone completely bricked on holiday and I tried everything, even a new screen but I couldn't get it to work. I thought I had lost all my holiday photos but Data Clinic managed to recover everything that was on the phone and I couldn't be happier! They are very friendly and professional.
Highly recommend Data Clinic
Janice and the team at Data Clinic have been brilliant through the whole process of helping recover my drive. I was really impressed they could show me my drive contents virtually and get everything back to me very quickly. I would highly recommend!
Amazing service by the team
Amazing service by the team and especially Mohammad. My SSD was taken for emergency recovery within the same day and satisfactory results were delivered. Highly recommend these guys if you value your data!
Really satisfied with the service
Really satisfied with the service from start to finish. I've contacted multiple companies around Manchester which all quoted £400-700 with turnaround of minimum 1 week, whereas they've completed this within 3-4 working days for less than £300.
Top notch communication and service
Top notch communication and service. My hard drive fell onto the carpet and started beeping. My laptop registered a hard drive was connected but no files would appear. Janice at Data Clinic was amazing.
Very easy and quick turnaround
Very easy and quick turnaround of retrieving all my data from a 15+ year old hard drive which recently stopped mounting. Comms and expertise were A++ and I'm very happy with the result.
Thousands of family photos recovered
Hard drive failed with thousands of family photos not backed up anywhere. Was expecting the worst — very happy with Data Clinic, they retrieved it all and transferred it to a good hard drive. Lesson learned!
They deserve 10 stars not 5!
I wish I could give 10 stars instead of 5! I am absolutely blown away by the service, level of professionalism and such friendly, accommodating and wonderful staff. I had a horrific scare with my hard drive.
They volunteered a lower price!
They quoted a price I was happy with, but when they received my bad hard drive they realised they could fix it more easily than first expected and reduced the price.
