Does it come with the data recovery plan insurance (when bought on Amazon?)

As I recall it does for a limited time, and you can purchase additional years pretty cheaply. I have been very happy with it.

Product key ships in the ship group. As for the recovery disk it carries the factory load image. If you want one without the bloatware then remove the bloatware and create your own recovery disk.

It didn't come with any recovery disk, but since this computer comes with windows 8 it offers a easy to use recovery/restore tool under the settings app. you can reload your whole o.s. like new.

Not covered if computer is refurbished and purchased through Amazon. eBay refurbished computers would be covered.

In my case, a written warranty came along in the box containing the pc. I suppose you should find it there too.

I bought my computer from Amazon and purchased a four year protection plan through Smart Guard Protection. I'm not sure if you can do it with yours since they were purchased at Walmart and eBay, but it can't hurt to check into it. Their website is www.mysmartguard.com

"Square trade bought on amazon are for amazon items only." That is completely false. I called Square Trade today and the representative verified Amazon is simply a reseller of these warranties. They apply to ANY retailer you purchase your item from as long as it is within 30 days of purchase! Just make sure to purchase the proper warranty for your item. Type in "Square Trade Hard Drive or Square Trade Laptop, etc." and it will give you the warranty you should purchase! :)

Well, the hard drive isn't made by Amazon so the manufacturer makes a box that can hold up a beating its self. Amazon adds a sort of insurance and extra extra packing (packing peanuts or more commonly those airpacks along with double boxing).

Does it really matter if it has a 5-year warranty? Will you be able to retrieve your data / photos / videos if it goes bad, scrape-scrape? Does the warranty include data retrieval? And if that data is sensitive, protected data, what happens when someone else gets it? Do you really want anyone else to have your account numbers, IDs and passwords?

Yes. It comes with a limited warranty (limited to manufacturer defects) valid for 12 months from the date of sale to the original consumer. Must have proof of purchase in the form of a bill of sale or receipted invoice. Recovery of data is not covered, nor shipping charges.

When mine failed I was offered free data recovery, but I don't know if it's officially part of the warranty. HOWEVER, they told me they had to ship it to Thailand and it would take 3-4 MONTHS to get the data back!

Warranty comes with purchase price of the drive. I've never heard of having to purchase a separate warranty for a hard drive or any other computer component.
