    Is it possible to move it to my main HDD, or a USB stick? It is 15gb id like to free up from my SSD, but when I run MSI Burn Recovery it asks me to make a separate D partition.

    you can use the MSI Burn recovery program and create the image to a 16GB USB flash drive and you can delete the recovery partition.

    So when it asks to make another partition is this just because it makes a fresh recovery to put on the USB? And then I can delete both?

    Also could I use a large enough SD memory card instead of a USB stick?

    Thanks in advance Ken!
