I just formatted my old primary drive but it seems I can’t delete the EFI and recovery partitions Without a workaround. I was just wondering if it was safe to delete them and what the best way of going about it would be.

Assuming you have verified the system actually boots up with this physical drive disconnected....commandline diskpart, and the clean command.
