You can.  My preference for keeping Windows on its own partition is so that I don't have to worry about running out of swap space and making restoring Windows in the event of viruses/crashes faster (programs not affected).  You can keep it together if you like; it's purely preference.
Buy some lol. </yaoming>

The HP backup media creator will not allow you to do that and I don't recommend that you skip making actual discs. 
The HP backup media creator will require 3 DVD+/-Rs.  I didn't try using a BD-disc because I don't have a BD burner (dv6-6001tx).

Ok thanks a lot!

After getting my unit, do I need to update anything manually? Or will Windows find all the relevant updates and update everything for me?

I don't think you can buy a new dv6-6114TX anywhere else other than online (click here).

The initial updating should trigger manually, but Windows Update has this bad habit of not running when you expect it to. The update process from stock will involve a few restarts, so I would start Windows Update manually after every restart while you are updating.

The HP updater will run automatically, but again I recommend starting it manually once in a while.

Almost forgot to ask the most important (well, at least to me it is...) question regarding the dv6-6001tx and dv6-6114tx.
The 2 USB3.0 slots are located on the right side of the notebook or the left side of the notebook? I tried to distinguish it but the blue color pad of the USB3.0 is not very significant on the dv6, so i cannot really identified which ones are the 3.0 slots.... can help clarify this?
