Common Mac Pro A1186 faults we repair
- Power supply faults
- Graphics card failure
- Hard drive failure
- Memory faults
Every repair starts with a diagnosis, and we give you a fixed price before any work. If the fault is on the logic board, we repair it at component level instead of replacing the whole board.
Data recovery from the A1186
The Mac Pro A1186 stores your files on up to four 3.5-inch drives in sleds, which we can swap for SSDs.
If the Mac has failed but the drive is fine, we take the drive out and copy your files to a new drive. If the drive itself is clicking, slow or not recognised, it goes to our data recovery lab, where we work on it with PC-3000 tools and a clean room.
Upgrades
- SSD upgrade: swapping the hard drive for an SSD is the single best upgrade for this Mac. It starts up and opens apps several times faster.
- Memory: Full-size memory modules (DIMM), which we can upgrade.

Questions
Where do I find the model number?
The model number is printed on the case, on the back panel or underneath. You can also check the year under Apple menu, About This Mac.
Can you get my files off a Mac Pro A1186 that will not turn on?
If the Mac has failed but the drive is fine, we take the drive out and copy your files to a new drive. If the drive itself is clicking, slow or not recognised, it goes to our data recovery lab, where we work on it with PC-3000 tools and a clean room.
Is a Mac Pro A1186 worth repairing?
It depends what you need it for. Parts for a Mac this age are getting harder to find, so we repair at board level where we can, and we always tell you if the repair is not worth it. We can always recover your files.
