Default performance after system recovery

I did a system recovery that brought my system back to factory settings but
saved all my files b/c I wanted pictures, music etc. My problem is that
before the recovery my free RAM was never lower than 700MB but after the
recovery is stays at 300-500MB. Is this a normal # and also can I delete the
files in my back-up that I no longer need such as, program files, doc &
settings? Would having duplicates to all this take up much RAM?

What exactly do you mean by 700MB free? Are you taking about disk space or
memory? RAM refers to memory, but your files are stored on disk.

Where is the backup located?
