Some times that space is auto reserved so that the HD is formatted ready to install a OS... if only for data then REMOVE and enjoy the extra...
some times this is used as "spooler space", sometimes this is used for RESTORE purposes,
many 3rd party partition managers needed to preform the DOS functions to add, edit, delete, change, and allowed you to do this to the MASTER Partition where the OS is installed... without this that partition can not be changed...
