hello.. im kinda new on this laptop.. just bought it a few days ago.. a couple of questions in mind.. mine comes with windows 8 edition.. i wonder is it safe to rename the drive named lenovo (D:) adn remove the original contents (software and driver)?.. if i do.. will it be impossible for me to run the recovery mode later?..

It's safe to remove but not with repercussion

1. One Key Recovery high likely will not work anymore. So, maybe you want to download all drives or create a recovery disks before doing that.
2. Win8 has recover to factory settings as well, but I dont know how it works with OKR or if Lenovo did any modification to that. Maybe somebody else can comment on that...

not easy to decide tho.. anyway i already resized the C: to about 150GB and D: to about 700GB something like that.. without renaming drive D: (labelled LENOVO) and maintaining the contents (drivers and software) i am able to recover using one key recovery.. now i have change the drive D: label to Backup and move software and drivers into another folder in drive D:.. will try to do one key recovery later and will update the results.. anyway.. before i do that.. is there any way i can peek into the hidden recovery partition of this laptop?.. i can see the partition exist but cant see the contents..
