I'm pretty sure that's how they had create the recovery "disk". Having
it on a thumb-drive was just the media they told me to use.

You _can_ make a recovery disk on a thumb drive, but it's best to have it created by the
installer on the boot drive. There's a tool named "Recovery Disk Assistant" out
there which helps create the Recovery Disk, but the best thing to do is to just run a
fresh copy of the OS X Installer.

If it works like it did when I bought the Mac Mini, you make a "recovery disk" on
an 8GB thumb drive. It doesn't have anything on it but the OS & possibly some files
needed to make the thumb drive bootable.
It won't recover your data, you have to back that up separately.
Probably best to do it before the drive gives you problems.
