According to the announcement of Apple co., the “SSD” in a part of MacBookAir has been recalled by Apple co. since October 17th, 2013.
If your MacBookAir occurs the trouble, you won’t be able to rescue all data in the MacBookAir.
First of all, I strongly recommend to back up all data in the MacBookAir (if you have) utilizing “Time Machine” function (Setting Handbook).
- Back up all data in the MacBookAir utilizing “Time Machine” function (Setting Handbook).
