Re-download Office Home and Student 2010. I have a product key but no CD

In March or April 2010, I purchased Office Home and Student 2010, online.  I have the product key.  I do not have a CD.

In October, the hard drive on the computer containing the software failed.  Now, with a new hard drive installed, I need to re-download the software.  I have searched the site extensively and have not found information about how to do this.  

Please provide detailed information about how to download the software.  Answers to an earlier question included a URL to a site for the trial version of software.  When I clicked on the link, however, I was redirected to a page for purchasing full versions of the software. 

Please help.  Thank you.

While getting a new trial will work, a more direct link to obtain the download package again is;

    I have the same issue in May 2015. I just bought a new computer and want to move my MS products and licence to to the new machine. The MS Home & Student download page tells me that my product key for Office 2010 is for a product that is not available for free download. What's going on?
