Factors to consider when choosing Hibernation:

While in Hibernation mode, the computer uses no battery
power

Because the mode of the system is held on the hard disk,
no data is lost if the main battery discharges

When starting up again, Hibernation uses less time and
battery power than does Turn off computer

Restarting from Hibernation takes a little more time and
battery power to start up than restarting from Standby,
because information is being retrieved from the hard disk
rather than from memory

When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode
in which you left it, including all open programs and files
you were previously using
