Dave, to tread lightly on your sensitivities...software is not shipped on hard drives per se. Hardware is shipped in racks, in cabinets, as blades, in clusters etc etc as a physical asset, a server. Software is well, soft. You will never break a fingernail implementing software, except maybe on the laptop keyboard...and here ONEV has a solution...the voice rather than the fingernails...

What's going on...ONEV carrier-grade server-delivered SW is put on the data center floor as an app and a service already installed on the server(s). Servers (the hardware) serve applications (the software). This concept is even confused within the data center but is based on these notions: a server can be defined as the HW components it is comprised of:CPU, memory, busses etc. What is also called a "server" is a software app that "serves" up a function. UNIX folks particularly like to differentiate the difference...ONEV functionality is that "served up app"...think buffet...
