What are all these partitions?

[FreshJR]

My 128gb SSD is kinda a clusterfsck

This laptop started with windows 8, upgraded to 8.1, upgraded to 10.

My partitions are as follows:

1) 300MB Recovery Partition
2) 260MB EFI System Partition
3) 110GB Windows Partition

4) 350MB Recovery Partition
5) 6.8GB Recovery Partition
6) 2GB RAW Partition

Now since this laptop didnt come with CD images, I assume partition 5 is what overwrites the current partition so the laptop returns to its factory state.

How can I check if partition 5 is windows 8 factory image? If it is ill delete it.
Is partition 4 a support partition for partition 5? If so, ill delete it as well.
What the hell is partition 6?

If I do need to reinstall windows, ill grab a clean image of windows 10 from microsoft. How do a make note of my current product key? This laptop didn't come with a sticker like older laptops used too.

If 10 is activated, you are good to go. Windows saves your system configuration to the activation. There is no longer a key, as such, except when installing from a new version bought off the shelf (so you can skip this part on a fresh install). So once you have backed up, just wipe all partitions on the drive during the install and you should have all available space on the drive.

The 7GB partition is probably an OEM recovery partition. Perhaps the extra 350MB partition is to do with OEM recovery as well.
