Can I use the same Hard Drive to store recovered files but on a different partition?

Hi everyone, I'm wondering if it would be all right to use the same Hard Drive that I'm trying to recover files from to store the recovered files on. I would store them on a different partition than the partition that I'm trying to recover the files from because I do not have another hard drive that I can use. I will be Using PhotoRec 7.0 and my Operating System is Windows 10 64 Bit. When I do run the the scan with PhotoRec how would I speed it up? Thank you, and I hope you can answer my questions.

Yes, using a different partition to store the recovered files is ok.
PhotoRec 7.1-WIP is faster than 7.0.
