Guess I'll wait for Thanksgiving.

Not in a hurry to wipe the disk and do a clean install now. Also will keep HP recovery partition for a while.

Already make an ISO disk and a bootable USB. Product key also recorded.

Windows 10 did feel a tad faster than Windows 8.1. Still hate the UI, though.
 
The recovery partition is to recover your OS .if you regret it after you upgraded to Win10.you can return to Win8.1. if you delet them ,you can no longer recover your OS,but it would NOT impact your current OS to operate nornally.
And the EFI partition,dont even touch it.these are OS boot file in it.every OS is with this partition,or it cant boot.but its uaually hidden.you cant see it without some special software
 
Hopefully it works that way, just had to restore an Asus laptop using 8 and found out that if it had 8.w installed those laptops bug out and can't be restored unless you send it back to the factory.
