Is a new Windows license necessary?

My relative purchased a used HP ProBook 6475b laptop wholesale from a local school district. The hard drive was completely removed prior to sale. I see a Windows 8 Pro sticker on the laptop but otherwise have no knowlege of what was installed. It came with no media of any kind. He would like to replace the hard drive, reinstall Windows (version?), and use the laptop for personal use, but I was wondering if a new Windows license must be purchased. And for that matter, how would a copy of Windows be obtained if a new license isn't required? Thanks.
