Restoring the factory contents by using Recovery Disc Set

When the hard disk drive or solid state drive is replaced because of a failure, no product recovery program is on the new drive. In this case, you must use the Recovery Disc Set for the computer. Order the Recovery Disc Set and the drive at the same time so that you can recover the new drive with the pre-installed software when they arrive.

The Recovery Disc Set consists of the following set of DVDs to restore the computer to the original factory configuration.

Start Recovery Disc (one disc)

This disc is used to format the hard disk drive and initiate the recovery process.

Supplemental Recovery Disc
