Using The Hard Disk Drive (Hdd) Protection - Toshiba portege A30-D User Manual

When your computer battery capacity is too low to continue, "System ON
CDP Charge Mode" might not work. In those cases, connect the AC
adaptor and reboot the computer.
Always use the USB cable that was included with your USB device.
When "System ON CDP Charge Mode" or "USB Sleep and Charge
function" is enabled, the "USB Wakeup" function might not work. In that
case, use a USB port without "USB Sleep and Charge function" or disable
both "System ON CDP Charge Mode" and "USB Sleep and Charge
function".

Using the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection

Some models have the function for reducing the risk of damage on the
Hard Disk Drive.
Using an acceleration sensor built into the computer, HDD Protection
detects vibration shocks and similar signs of movement of the computer,
and automatically moves the Hard Disk Drive head to a safe position to
reduce the risk of damage that might be caused by head-to-disk contact.
When vibration is detected, a notification is displayed on the screen, and
the icon in the Taskbar changes to the protection state. This message is
displayed until the OK button is pressed or 30 seconds pass. When
vibration subsides, the icon returns to the normal state.
Setting up HDD Protection
You can change HDD Protection settings.
To open the utility, click Start -> TOSHIBA -> System Settings -> HDD

You can enable or disable HDD Protection by moving the slider to the right

User's Manual
HDD Protection function does not guarantee that the Hard Disk Drive
will not be damaged.
During audio/video playback, when the computer detects a shock or
vibration and the Hard Disk Drive's head is parked, the playback might
be temporarily interrupted.
HDD Protection cannot be used in models that are equipped with
SSD.
