No do not delete
I know a lot more people will read these thread and become confused. The true answer for almost every normal person is NO, NO, NO.
Do not remove a partition called Recovery Partition with 10 or 11 Gig in it.
Why would you?
When you need more space you go out and buy a 1T or 2T external drive.
Recovery is there for a reason and the attitude of looking for things to screw up your machine is a bad attitude that needs to stop or eventually you will do something serious.
The geeks in here, like myself, we can do this kind of thing. Your normal and can't. When a geek does this we already know that this machine is expendable and we already have recovery backup in 2 or 3 redundancy levels. Average bl-oaks don't.
So forget it. Recovery means recovery. If you don't want to ever recover again, or you what to gamble with your life, then delete it and that will be the end of an important feature. Maybe data is not your life like it is for some of us.
DON'T LISTEN TO THOSE WHO TELL YOU FROM THEIR PERSPECTIVE TO DELETE STUFF, THEY WILL BE LAUGHING WHILE YOU SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES.
THIS IS A WARNING FOR EVERY AMATEUR OUT THERE.
