Getting your files back
On the Apple iMac 24-inch M1 the storage is soldered to the logic board and encrypted by the Mac’s security chip. It can’t be taken out and read in another computer, so if the Mac won’t start, getting your files back means repairing the board until it boots again. Liquid damage and power faults are the usual causes, and most are repairable.
The first data recovery consultation is free.
