Recovering from the Recovery Area
You can recover your VAIO computer from the recovery area on the built-in
storage device. This recovery method is faster than using Recovery Media.
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).
If your VAIO computer has become unstable, it is recommended that you use
the refresh function provided by Windows. Refresh the computer by following
these steps.
Recovery is the process of restoring the built-in storage device back to its
original factory condition. Refresh is the process of reinstalling the operating
system with the main settings and personal data retained.

Media to recover your VAIO computer.
