It means that they send you back your drive as if you just bought the machine and
took it out of the box. It has all the original software on it. IBM used to have a CD-ROM,
and I was lucky to get a copy for the 701, but I think this is the only option now.

What were you planning to use the drive for?

See the above question -are you using it as an extra drive, or as a boot drive?
