    SSD RECALL 2016 13" Macbook pro any fixes?

    Just wondering if anyone has fixed one of the 13" 2017 MBP with the SSD chips soldered to the board? Wanted to know if it was a solder issue and could be Re-flowed properly to get access to the data? Again Apple is screwing it's customers with this crap.
