Sick And Tired Of Doing Mac Data Recovery The Old Way? Read This!

Sick And Tired Of Doing Mac Data Recovery The Old Way? Read This!

Aine Mori Fharney August 17, 2017

A couple of ways ago, we shared how you can prevent data loss in Windows 10. This time, let’s discuss Apple Mac.  In this hi-tech era, the demand for Mac systems has skyrocketed. Thanks to its user-friendly interface, intuitive design, great customer support, rich features and functionality, up-to-date version, and other impressive features. I have been an avid Mac user for quite a long time and it feels great to be a part of the Apple family!

Owning a Mac is good but having the correct applications and software is the icing on the cake. This will not only help in controlling the damage and managing files but also aid in increasing productivity and enhancing system performance.

Indeed, we value our data and are not prepared for their loss. For this, we all have heard of backup as a sure-shot-companion. But, how many of us do a backup on a regular basis? Further, how many of us follow the 3-2-1 Backup Rule?

At a recent Computer Backup Awareness Survey, Backblaze unveiled how often people backup their data:

After digging into data loss situations and after analyzing these statistics and figures, I realized how critical backup is!

Sixth Distinguishing Trait about the Software—Value-added Features

This software has some distinguishing attributes that make it stand apart from its competitors. One such is the Create Image Option. It is the perfect option for those users who have bad sectors on their Mac hard drive. They can use this mountable image of the Mac volume, hard drive, or a selected region and use it in the case of media failure as a complete backup.

I highlighted it because using this disk image file (.DMG) feature was able to easily create an entire image on my Mac hard drive and execute the recovery process effortlessly.

Another striking feature is its Advanced Scan Option. It is an ideal option for users who have lost their data due to hard drive formatting. This mode will execute deeper scanning to locate missing files.

Last but not the least, the Stop, Save & Resume Recovery support is also excellent. Thanks to it, you can stop the process in between and proceed with your priority tasks. This convenient Resume Recovery feature allows you to resume data recovery on previously saved disk image files.

If I talk about its recovery process, then I can easily say it is very intuitive: you do not require any advanced technical skills.

I applied the following steps to recover the data

1. I Launched the Software
