Protection

the computer to detect vibration and shocks, and

automatically moves the hard disk drive's read/

write head to a safe position in order to reduce the

risk of damage that could be caused by headto-

disk contact. Refer to the

Using the Hard Disk

Drive (HDD) Protection

section in Chapter 4,

Operating Basics

, for more details.

The TOSHIBA HDD Protection function does not guarantee that the hard

disk drive will not be damaged.

Hibernation

This feature lets you turn off the power without

working right where you left off. Refer to the

section in Chapter 3,

Getting Started

, for details.

Sleep Mode

If you have to interrupt your work, you can turn off
