    Hi, got a DV7 with 2 partitions- C: drive with OS ad D: drive with the recovery part.

    I have burned 3 recovery dvds from the laptop.

    If I put in a new hdd, fire up the recovery discs.. I know it will create a C: drive with the OS.. but will it also create a D: drive with the recovery part same as original hdd?

    Thanks..
