I have a macbook pro, i think it was a 2013 model.
It hasn't werked in over a year. As in it wont turn on. I think either the battery broke or the new charger i bought was a dud.
The original charger wasn't in good shape anyway, so that's why I'm unsure if it truly is broken. However the charger i got after, isn't that likely to be a dud.
I'm not hardware savvy. Is it worth tinkering around with it finding out what the main problem is and possibly buying parts to fix it? Seems a bit expensive to do so. The charger alone is expensive.
Or is it worth selling at all? Maybe selling parts? Is that a thing? The laptop was left in a garage for just over a year in is in such a shitty state physically that i doubt selling the whole thing completely would be an option. Are there any parts that might be worth selling?
Also, what would be the best way to recover data from the harddrive? I have a regular laptop running Linux, is it possible to somehow connect the macbooks harddrive to my laptop and recover some data?
Again, i am not hardware savvy, always been a software guy.
What would be the best course of action here?
