Removing Recovery Content to Free up Disk
Space
Your built-in storage device contains the recovery area where the data for system recovery
is stored. If your VAIO computer includes a solid state drive (SSD), you might want to
minimize the recovery area by removing such data to free up disk space on the C: drive (or
the last drive in your drive list, for example D: drive).
You need Recovery Media to remove the data for system recovery or to recover the
computer after you remove the data.
Note that removing recovery content makes it impossible to use the refresh function.
1.
Create Recovery Media if you have not yet created it.
2.
Insert the Recovery Media into the optical disc drive or connect a USB flash drive (not
supplied) to the USB port on your VAIO computer while the computer is in Normal
mode.

Turn off your VAIO computer.
