Item Description:
1TB Seagate Hard Drive HDD with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Pre-installed
Model: ST1000DM010
Rotation Speed: 7200 RPM
Cache Memory: 64 MB
The buyer must have a Microsoft digital license or product key for the exact version of Windows 10 installed (in this case Windows 10 Pro). These drives are for people who purchased a desktop with no hard drive, or whose hard drives have crashed and do not have the Windows media to reinstall the operating system, or who want to upgrade to a Drive with Windows 10 Pro. A license or key for any other version of Windows 10 will not validate Windows 10 Pro. If you don't own Windows 10 Pro, but want to upgrade to it, you can purchase a key from Microsoft.
Digital Windows 10 Licenses/Embedded License
A digital license is a virtual product key. If you previously upgraded from an older version of Windows to Windows 10, you have what is known as a digital or embedded license. That means the Microsoft servers already know you have a Windows 10 license for that desktop, which is linked to serial numbers of several pieces of hardware they identified in your desktop and it will be automatically validated by Microsoft without you putting in an actual product key. While you do not need a physical product key in this case, you do need to know if you own Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Home as the installed version on the hard drive must match the version you own.
Important: These drives are for older desktops that use 3.5" SATA drives and are set to boot with Legacy support enabled in the BIOS. Before ordering this drive, enter your desktop's BIOS setup and make sure your BIOS boot mode is set to Legacy, and that you can disable Secure Boot, otherwise you will get a "No bootable devices" message when you install the new drive. If there is no mention of UEFI and no choice of boot mode, then it is Legacy. If you want your new drive to boot in UEFI mode, and have that option in your BIOS, then let us know when you purchase that you want this hard drive to boot in UEFI mode.
How you enter the BIOS varies between manufacturer and laptop model. Do not buy this drive if you don't know how, or can't, enter the BIOS setup on your desktop. On most desktops it involves hitting a Function Key as soon as you turn on the desktop - on most Dell desktops it is F2, on most Lenovo desktops it is F1, and on most HP desktop it is F10. Every BIOS is different, but you will most likely find the Boot Mode under the Boot or Startup section, and the Secure Boot option under either the Boot or Security sections. Also, make sure that SATA Operation in Bios is set to "Legacy".
Drive is Cleaned and Refurbished and thoroughly Tested for Key Functions.
Our Used computer components such as CPUs, GPUs, Memory, Motherboards and Power Supplies are pulled from working computers/servers and are tested for functionality.
