    Hi folks...

    Does anybody have a Samsung R730 and can supply me the disk/hidden partition setup for the recovery area?

    I am going to have one manual try at building it before forking out for the samsung service centre to do it.
    My disk crashed and I have a new hard drive. I have another windows 7 computer, a USB holder for the new disk and a rough idea how to do it. I just need disk size, and any details that can be obtained that are relevant to the Samsung Recovery Area.

    Alternatively, if anybody has any other suggestions?

    What are you going to use the recovery partition for?

    You can most likely have a more flexible backup system using software such as Acronis TrueImage for less cost than paying Samsung to put a recovery partition on your computer.
