Target Disk Mode (sometimes referred to as TDM or Target Mode) is a boot mode unique to Macintosh computers.
When a Mac that supports Target Disk Mode[1] is started with the 'T' key held down, its operating system does not boot. Instead, the Mac's firmware enables its drives to behave as a SCSI, FireWire, Thunderbolt and/or USB-C external mass storage device.

Hi,
Not sure how old your MacBook Pro, though if it uses 2.5inch HDD, pull out it and install in external 2.5inch SATA enclosure then connect it to new Mac to salvage data could works.
