Benefits of Hibernation
The hibernation feature provides the following benefits:
■ Saves data to the hard disk when the computer automatically shuts
down because of a low battery.
For the computer to shut down in hibernation mode, the hibernation
feature must be enabled in two places in TOSHIBA Power Management
utility: the Power Save Modes tab and the Advanced tab. Otherwise, the
computer will shut down in Standby mode. If battery power becomes
depleted, data saved in Standby will be lost.
■ You can return to your previous working environment immediately
when you turn on the computer.
■ Saves power by shutting down the system when the computer
receives no input or hardware access for the duration set by the
System hibernate feature.
■ You can use the panel power off feature.
