The fact that you got a huge recovery partition suggests  you did a misstep.Did you read over information about how to migrated the Windows OS  to Solid State Drive?<br/>They have a forum you could have checked.<br/><a href="http://forum.easeus.com/viewtopic.php?t=22119">http://forum.easeus.com/viewtopic.php?t=22119</a><br/>One poster there suggests it is better to install the OS directly to the SSD and later install the application programs to either SSD or HDD as desired. IMO that is a safer choice.  <br/>I followed this Lifehacker guide: <a href="https://lifehacker.com/5837543/how-to-migrate-to-a-solid-state-drive-without-reinstalling-windows">http://lifehacker.com/5837543/how-to-migrate-to-a-solid-state-drive-without-reinstalling-windows</a>That reference looks good.

What causes a 350mb partition to jump into a 35.7GB partition?
