The easiest way is to add a second hard drive, and install MacOS on it. You can now start of it and reformat your first drive. Method 2: purchase an 8GB thumbdirve (flashdrive), go to www.macupdate.com, download a program called "Diskmaker X" Note you will need a full copy of MacOS 10.9.5 or 10.10.1 on your computer. If you don't have one, go to the app store and download a copy. Put the Flashdrive in, run Diskmaker ( about 22mins) when done you will have a bootable flashdrive.Hope this helps!

There is a partition on your hard drive that houses the OS, if you search for information on your computer it will tell you how to get to that partition.

The answer is already in my review:"Be also aware that any new Mac now comes without a system backup on DVD. Go to Apple support Web pages and look for « Reinstall OS X » and « Recovery Disk Assistant » for details."

No, unfortunately it doesn't. You will have to backup the system and burn your own recovery discs. :(. It may depend upon whom the system is purchased from as to whether or not you will receive discs. Mine did not come with anything aside from the tower.

Ours is a refurbished computer and didn't come with a restore disc, but you can make your own.

There was no software - just Windows 8 since it was a brand new computer. It's just that my old disks were too scratched to reuse.

My didn't have one but some might depending on who you order from. You can ask or check the discriptions too to see if they offer a disk.

No it does not, however you are encouraged to generate a backup disk after placing your new computer into service. It would be nice if the seller or manufacturer provided a software repair disc. They did years ago.
