    Can someone explain the 6 partitions as delivered on the XPS 9570 drive? Seems extreme. Obviously one is the GPT bitlocker encrypted C: drive. One is likely a recovery partition and another is likely the GPT partition. But that leaves 3 for unknown reasons. I have not yet done a fresh Win 10 install and don't want to until I know what I will be missing from the oem system.

    I have the 1TB SSD M.2 drive in my 9570.
