windows 8 re-installation and hdd partitions

hi 

i have just purchased an inspiron 15 windows 8 preinstalled from dell. i have yet to recieve the laptop.

but this is the first time i will be using a pre installed windows that to windows 8.

i am used to making seperate partitions for windows and the data so that in case of  crash windows can be re-installed again without loosing data.

now i read some articles about dell recovery....app etc .

1. will i be able to make a windows 8 cd alone 

2. what does it mean when u say factory setup image, does that mean re-installing windows from a recovery disk will reformat the whole hdd and make it as one partition again or will i be able to able to re-install in the chosen partition as with windows 7 and older.

i hope you can understand what i am trying to explain

can anyone help me with this dilema..
