Is the description of the item correct/as is? Some buyers said they received wrong item, or not as described. Does it come w/ recovery disks?

I don't know what a recovery disk is. All I can say is that I'm very happy with the product, have had no problems with it at all. It's better than I expected - very fast and far more powerful than what I could have afforded for a new tower. I'm totally happy with it.

Yes the item arrived as described on time , with a recovery disk. It's going on 2 months since I've had it, and I have no complaints. Runs great, and they even thru in a free wifi adapter no charge! I would order from these guys agin.

It was exactly as described, in like-new condition. And yes, recovery disk is included. I have had it for months - absolutely no problems with it at all.

Than you. But may I know what seller you bought it from? I think it depends on the seller. So I want to make sure I got the goid seller.

No, it does not include recovery discs. However, after you get the computer up and running, there is a way for you to burn them yourself. It takes 3 DVDs (many more CDs). They warn that you can only burn one set of recovery discs, so don't lose them.

Does anyone read the product descriptions? It says it comes with two disks. One with the 32 bit version and one with the 64 bit version.

The one I got from seller came with box, charger, recovery flash drive and office program installed. It will depend from seller to seller ask questions to seller before buying a used one.

Depends what you mean by rescue disk. There is a 9.62 GB partition labeled "Recovery Partition". I haven't used it with this computer but with every other computer I've seen that partition is for restoring to factory defaults. Windows also has an option to create rescue disk. Not many computers ship with a Windows CD/DVD, anymore, which is too bad because doing a factory reset from the Recovery partition restores all of the unwanted software too.

It came with a 3 month trial subscriptions to Nortons.It does not come with recovery discs but you can burn your own.You can only burn them once though.

No, Amazon wants the whole thing back. I was missing two disks. After making enough noise, Amazon offered to refund 20% of the price ($3?). Such a waste and not the best customer service.

You have to check with the vendor for exact configuration available. I got one with Win7 Pro 32bit, pre-installed. It came with a knock-off "Win 7 repair CD" and a DVD with a current "system image" for recovery of the operating systemin the event the drive fails.

you're referring to an OS recovery disc I assume... my guess would be no. Most PCs now a days do not include that (at least not included for no additional cost), but you should have an option to create your own using blank DVD+Rs or USB flash driveLook for the HP Recovery Manager

nope, your drive should be fine. These used to be shown as being OEM (NOT Retail packaging) shipped drives, but I don't see that now. So, if you were expecting a retail box, then return it; otherwise there are no differences.

It's definitely OEM with no media. There is a recovery partition which contains everything you need should you need to rebuild, etc...and as a side note, the drive is partitioned C: and D: by default. I was able to delete D: and extend C:, since I prefer one contiguous space...cheers

I need to swap the print circuit board, since PC cannot detect this drive any more. I have tons of data on this drive that needs retrieval. So I placed another order again. Hope I will get exact model as I bought in Nov, 2010. The model I received last time is also WD20EARS-00MVWB0. Can someone report what's their model number now, if they bought it recently? Thank you. I will report mine once I get it on Monday.

It depends which seller you buy it from. Some will include a restore disc but others will not. So before purchasing you might want to try contacting the seller and ask if it will come with a restore disc. But more than likely if it were to include a restore disc it will say so in the description of the product. I hope this has helped you, Chris
