    I just bought a refurbed Samsung Series 9 NP900X3C-A03US (And Love it btw). THe person who refurbed it, installed a fresh install of Windows 7 instead of using of using F4 and restoring it to factory. I am now missing the recovery partition and was hoping some kind soul would be willing to make a clonezilla image of just the recovery partition. Thanks.

    You would need to get the SSD reimaged by Samsung. Just putting back the Recovery Partition doesn't get Samsung Recovery Solution working again. Somewhere, there's a pointer that SRS uses.

    The loss of the recovery partition is not such a disaster for Windows 7 machines (for which a Windows 7 installer can be legally downloaded) than it is for Windows 8.
