Partitioning scheme Windows 7

I want install Windows 7 Pro on new notebook with 500GB hard drive. The similar Dell notebook with Win 8.1 and 500GB HDD come with default partitions shown here. I just want use same sheme for my notebook: should I choose just one partition whole disk, and Windows 7 will create this two additional partitions, ~39MB OEM partition and about 12GB Recovery Partition? Or I should specify Recovery Partition myself? Which size will be good for Recovery Partition, will be OK 16GB? Or maybe is better to set 100GB for Windows and the rest for data?
