You should be fine as the D: partition is the default backup path, There is another partition where win8 is stored and is hidden for obvious reasons.

 

Talking of backing up, I strongly advise you to backup win8 to a flash drive using Onekey recovery.

If the computer came with pre-installed Windows the D:/ Drive will be containing the Hidden Image file of OS (Operating System) which cannot be deleted directly but only by formatting it.
