Data recovery became the only solution for a home user in Plainfield, New Jersey, after their iMac suddenly refused to boot. Restart attempts failed, and while the computer was eventually repaired with a replacement hard drive, the original 3 TB Seagate drive (model ST3000DM001) still contained more than 1 TB of important personal files—documents, photos, scanned records, and videos that had not been backed up.
With the data trapped on a non-booting drive, the customer turned to WeRecoverData, the leading data recovery company trusted to save files from systems that no longer start.
Even though the iMac had already been fitted with a new drive, the specialists at WeRecoverData knew there was still a strong chance the original files could be saved. A boot failure does not always mean data loss—it often means the drive needs expert handling to access the storage safely.
In the lab, engineers carefully examined the Seagate hard drive using specialized tools designed for Mac-based systems. By working around the boot failure, they were able to directly access the internal storage and extract the trapped files.
The outcome was a complete success. All of the user’s important data was recovered, safe, and intact.
Thanks to WeRecoverData, a failed iMac did not mean lost memories. The files were saved, peace of mind was restored, and another data recovery story ended with relief and satisfaction.
