Ff install help

I'm not sure where to post this ='/ so sorry in advance if it's in the wrong forum

Anyways I recently reformatted my computer, didn't think anything about FF. Once the format was over and everything I wondered about FF lol. My question is, will I have to re-purchase FF again? along with all the expansion because I lost all my CDs, I mean it was years ago when I bought them. I quit awhile ago and now I want to get back into FF but can't

Just might have too... I had back up copies of the CDs on my computer as well as had friends who played FFXI even as i quit so i could borrow theirs as well. If you don't have friends who play may be stuck into buying new CD's or could try downloading through torrent if at all possible.
