Those other partitions are labeled "recovery" and they really aren't that big. I can only fathom that some apps/pgms. are there to return in case of a crash. Either provided by Lenevo and/or your current system recovery pgm., possibly OneKey on a time stamp basis. It will load the main recovery when you start and then refer to latest recovery file to e to your last saved current status. I just won't fiddle with them, but you can contact or visit your Lenevo support website and check the FAQ or support responses. Since you mentioned "factory reset" count the times you did this. if you want to remove the smaller recovery partitions then use the date it was created, the oldest being the clue to remove. You can boot into some Linux "live disc" , I like Ubuntu and check what the contents are in the recovery partitions. You can even use Ubuntu to delete it. Up to you, backup is recommended.

When I go to defragment my hard drives, the menu shows a lot of unknown drives 3-8 (as shown in the images). Under the "Current status" column, some of these drives are stuck at 36%. How can I remove these allocated drives that are unused? I have a feeling these are allocated memory that is being unused. I'm guessing that drives 3 and 4 were from a virtual machine I've made in the past and drives 5-8 are from every time I've factory reset my computer (again, just a hunch).
Im running Windows 8 on a Lenovo Z585 (with AMD graphics)
