Using the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection
This computer has a function for reducing the risk of damage on the hard
disk drive.
Using an acceleration sensor built into the computer, TOSHIBA 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 could be caused by head-to-disk
contact.
■
This function does not guarantee that the hard disk drive will not be
damaged.
■
The secondary hard disk drive is not supported by the TOSHIBA HDD
protection function.
When vibration is detected, the following message is displayed, and the
icon in the notification area of the taskbar is changed 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.
