How to clean up partitions after OS X is moved from HD to SSD

Question

Yesterday an Apple Certified Macintosh Technician installed an SSD into my iMac medio 2011. The iMac was born with an 1TB HDD but now a Crucial M4 SSD is also installed inside the mac. I've moved my OS X to the SSD using the OS X Recovery, where the OS was installed using an Time Capsule Backup. Afterwards I did an Erase of the old HDD in Disk Utility to remove my old OS and my data has now been transferred to new, clean partition. Afterwards I inserted my Lion DVD and did an reinstall of the OS X to get the OS X Recovery partition created on my SSD. The name of the partition on the SSD is Crucial M4 SSD and the name of partition on my old 1TB HDD is Storage.

Please see this output from diskutil list:

1. Why do I have an Apple_Boot on disk1 after the entire disk was erased?
2. What is the EFI and Apple_Boot?
3. Is it normal that the type of the Recovery HD is Apple_Boot?

Answer 1

Why do I have an Apple_Boot on disk1 after the entire disk was erased?

I am not sure on this one. Seeing the size (134 MB) I don' this this is the actual boot partition itself.

What is the EFI and Apple_Boot?

EFI is the Extensible Firmware Interface system partition. This is a special partition that holds boot loaders for all the OSes installed, in other partitions:

The EFI System partition is a partition on a data storage device that is used by machines that adhere to the Extensible Firmware Interface. It contains the boot loader programs for all operating systems installed (in other partitions) on the device, device driver files (used by the firmware at boot time) for other devices, and system utility programs that are intended to be run before an operating system is booted.1

Is it normal that the type of the Recovery HD is Apple_Boot?*

Yes. Otherwise you cannot use the recovery partition to recover when the OS on the other partition(s) has crashed, right?

The recovery partition is actually replacement of the OS install disk. From OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery

OS X Lion includes a new feature called Lion Recovery that includes all of the tools you need to reinstall Lion, repair your disk, and even restore from a Time Machine backup without the need for optical discs.
