HDD Protection
You can choose whether to enable or disable HDD Protection.
Detection Level
This function can be set to four levels. The sensitivity levels in which
vibrations, impacts and their similar signs are detected can be set to OFF,
1, 2, and 3 in ascending order. Level 3 is recommended for better protection
of the computer. However, when the computer is used as handheld or in
other unstable conditions, setting the detection level to 3 could result in
frequent execution of HDD Protection, which will slow HDD reading and
writing. Set a lower detection level when the speed of HDD reading and
writing is a priority.
