• Active Protection System (Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1)
The Active Protection System program protects your hard disk drive when the shock sensor inside your
computer detects a condition that could damage the drive, such as system tilt, excessive vibration, or
shock. The hard disk drive is less vulnerable to damage when it is not operating. This is because when
the hard disk drive is not operating, the system stops it from spinning, and might also move the read
and write heads of the drive to areas that do not contain data. As soon as the shock sensor senses
that the environment is stable again (minimal change in system tilt, vibration, or shock), it turns on the
hard disk drive.
