Get Back Files When MacBook Pro Does Not Detect SSD

“My MacBook Pro is not detecting SSD mounted on it due to some logical errors. It happened after unsuccessful update of Mac OS X Mountain Lion on MacBook Pro. The SSD stores all my critical files, personal folders, office documents, favorite music tracks and so on. Since I lack external storage drive I had not backed up all necessary files. And now I’m at risk of permanently losing data from undetectable SSD on MacBook Pro. Is there any method to retrieve files when MacBook Pro does not detect SSD?”.

Situation like this may create panic among MacBook Pro users as valuable data on its storage media becomes out of reach. MacBook Pro is one of the most used Notebooks by Apple Inc. which is supported with SSD to store all its data. Since SSD uses flash technology, data storage speed is higher as compared to regular internal hard drive. Also, SSD performs much better on MacBook Pro and hence, many users make use of SSD to hold data on MacBook Pro. However, SSD on MacBook Pro can become inaccessible or unrecognized in many situations like mentioned below:

• Incorrect installation or reinstallation of Mac operating system on MacBook Pro can damage working of SSD and thus makes it undetectable
• MacBook Pro may not detect SSD due to incorrect software update catalog or journal file corruption
• Virus or Malware threats is another prime factor that can corrupt SSD on MacBook Pro making it unrecognized
• Apple partition Map corruption, frequent hanging of MacBook Pro Notebook installing unreliable applications on SSD, incorrect repartitioning, reformatting, etc. can make this storage device not recognized

When SSD undergoes any of these instances, it might become undetectable and MacBook Pro will fail to boot. In order to overcome issues with SSD on MacBook Pro, it is highly suggested to hold backup of all essential data from MacBook Pro in other external storage devices. However, many users fail to backup all recent data from SSD and regret after they lose their essential data when MacBook Pro does not detect SSD. But one need not worry much because there are possible techniques to retrieve data from unrecognized SSD on MacBook Pro and one brilliant way is to employ good data recovery program.
