Introduction
TOSHIBA HDD
Protection
This feature uses the acceleration sensor built in
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 head-to-disk contact. Refer to the Using the
Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection section in
Chapter 4, Operating Basics for details.
The TOSHIBA HDD Protection function does not guarantee that the hard
disk drive will not be damaged.
Hibernation Mode This feature lets you turn off the power to the
computer without exiting from your software. The
contents of main memory are automatically
saved to the hard disk drive so that when you
next turn the power on again, you can continue
working right where you left off. Refer to the
Turning off the power section in Chapter 3,
Getting Started, for more details.
Sleep Mode If you have to interrupt your work, you can use
this feature to allow you to turn off power to the
computer without exiting from your software. Data
is maintained in the computer's main memory so
that when you next turn on the power, you can
continue working right where you left off.
Optical Drive Auto
Lock
This function automatically locks the optical disc
drive eject button if the computer detects any
vibration or other shocks while running on the
battery. This function prevents the disc tray from
opening even if the eject button is pushed
unexpectedly. For information on using this
feature, please refer to the Optical Drive Auto
Lock section in Chapter 4, Operating Basics.
