Dell untility, recovery partitions.

Dell Inspiron 7100 W7 Home Premium 64 bit NG15SP1.

 

I found this thread:

 

http://community.norton.com/t5/Other-Norton-Products/Do-we-need-to-add-the-quot-dell-partition-quot-to-our-Ghost-job/td-p/417370

 

that indicates that I should back up the 39MB utility partition and the 10.88GB recovery partition once only. If I'm wrong please correct me.

 

The I was looking at my drives (see below). What's now drive F: used to be my system drive and it "sorta failed" (it's erratic). I cloned it onto a new 2TB drive C: My question is this: it appears that the cloning has created another 10.92GB partition that Computer Manager says is unallocated. I assume I could get rid of this completely (if I knew how) correct?

 

Thanks, Joe
