Every hard drive is like a time bomb of inconvenience, just waiting to go off. If you’ve backed up your Mac’s drive onto an external drive, that’s good. But if you’ve been using computers long enough, you know that the day may come when both go kaput.

That’s why keeping a good data recovery tool is key. As long as your drive remains physically functional, an app like Data Rescue can recover your otherwise lost data. The latest Data Rescue 4 won the Gold Award from TopTenReviews for saving users from forking hundreds of bucks over to a recovery center. And right now, you can get Data Rescue 4 for just $49 at Cult of Mac Deals.

Data Rescue 4 works on all Mac hard drives, even ones that fail to fully mount. You can use it to recover data from up to 5 drives. That means crashed, corrupted and non-mounting hard drives, from which you can recover damaged or missing files. It’s also a simple way to recover crashed drives, thanks to the built-in Bootwell feature. Additionally, you can clone an exact copy of your hard drive for quicker recovery. Plus, Data Rescue 4 supports recovery from NTFS-based Boot Camp partitions. So if you want a way out of a dive that’s stopped working, this is a solid choice.

Buy now: Get Data Rescue 4 for Mac for $49, that’s half off the usual price.
