I was told that my hard drive in the macbook air 13 inch (purchased in 2012) is broken with almost no possibility to recover the data, said both Apple Genius Bar and a guy from Electronic Market in Shanghai. The condition is, I have always been taking good care of the notebook, no water or drop ever happened to it. A week ago, it was working perfectly fine. Sat, i press the power button and it came out with a grey screen followed by question mark. Apple store claimed that the T&Cs clearly said hard drive rescue/data recovery is customers' responsibility. All they can do is to replace the HD and take back the old one. If I want to keep the old one, I need to pay 1100 USD. Now I need to find a way to get the data out of the drive, if possible at all, before they change the drive. I lost my backup hard disk already and if I can't recover the data here, I lose my life .... tears
please give me some hope by letting me know if anyone had similar problem and what are the solutions.... thanks so much!
