Introduction

TOSHIBA HDD

Protection

This feature which is for the hard disk drive

models uses the acceleration sensor built in the

computer to detect vibration, falls 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

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

Getting Started

, for more details.
