I have a friends MacBook Pro that has some water damage that caused the MacBook not to be able to use battery power, but still work when plugged into A/C. Upon further inspection I can see visible corrosion on a few of the 9 cables going from the battery connector to that small circuit board.

Yes, it's mentioned on the top of this page. P5 Pentalobe to be precise. I didn't have one either, so I bought one from iFixit and that works fantastic. An absolutely precise fit, which is important especially when you might open your MacBook a couple of times during the years you own it. Not using the correct tool might do more harm to the screws than you want!

If you bought a brand new SSD you will have to initialize it. When you turn your computer on hold down option+command+R.

Then, on the window that gives you the options to install OSX or use TimeMachine, or use Disk Utility. Pick Disk utility because you need to initialize the drive. Select your drive on the left side bar then select 'partition' and give it a name, make sure it is 'journaled' and select the number of partitions that you want. You can then click continue, or next or whatever is at the bottom. It'll take a few seconds for the partition to be completed. Lastly, go back to the window with the main options as (stated above) and select 'download OSX'. Then let that baby download and your home free!

I have a 13” MacBookPro Retina Dual i5 2.7 Ghz computer with a 128 GB SSD drive and 8GB of RAM. Someone spilled a beer over the keyboard and it will no longer start up. Apple says the logic board needs replacing. Only then can the other parts be tested for potential damage. It’s no longer under warranty and it’s not insured.

For the cost of the repairs, I can get a comparable used MBP. I need to get my data off the hard drive first. Can I remove it per the instructions above, hook it up by cable to my other Mac, and copy the files that way?

My last Time Machine backup was unfortunately four weeks previous to the beer spill, and I need to access the newer files as well as the old ones. Tigger quotes for mac desktop. Any suggestions?
