Can you recover data from my iMac Retina 4K 21.5-inch (Late 2015)?
The storage in this model can be taken out, which is good news if the Mac itself has died: we can remove the drive and recover your files directly, or move them to a new SSD. If the drive itself has failed, our data recovery lab handles clicking and undetected drives too.
Is it worth repairing my iMac Retina 4K 21.5-inch (Late 2015)?
Its last supported system is macOS 12 Monterey, so it is now an older Mac. An SSD, battery or clean-up often gives it years more life, but for a serious board fault we will usually suggest recovering your data and putting the money towards a newer Mac.
