Re: “my macbook's motherboard is all burned out, so is there any chance I can recover my data?”


Not if you failed to make backups.


Backups must be made before catastrophe occurs. Afterwards is generally too late. Especially on a Mac with a T2 security chip and soldered-in flash chips, whose contents are encrypted using keys held by the T2, and which reside on a motherboard that is “all burned out.”
