![]() Don't choose this option without exhausting all the other ones first since more damage could occur to the electronics. If Apple, an AASP and the professional data recovery services are unable to assist or are too expensive, then a last ditch effort would be to try cleaning the boards to see if it will allow the system to at least power on for Target Disk Mode. If the laptop powers on, then Target Disk Mode may be a possibility if it is still an available option with the default security settings. Apple at first did not provide a way to retrieve data from the T2 models, but later backpedaled to allow AASP's to attempt data recovery on damaged systems. While it is debatable whether an Apple Store will assist with data recovery, an independent AASP should be willing to attempt retrieval of the data using Apple's special device assuming the special Logic Board connector, the SSD and T2 chip are all operational. I thought with water damage it’s mostly caps blowing out and/or contacts getting corroded. This is more like an iPhone or iPad where everything is encrypted and the only hope of getting things back is that the encryption and flash are intact and there’s no major board damage. Well, I’m thinking of one particular guy who might be able to do it.
