Data save in hibernation mode
When you turn off the power in hibernation mode, the computer takes a moment to
save current memory data to the hard disk. During this time, the Built-in HDD
indicator will light.
After you turn off the computer and memory is saved to the hard disk, turn off the
power to any peripheral devices.
CAUTION: Do not turn the computer or devices back on immediately.
Wait a moment to let all capacitors fully discharge.

Standby mode

In standby mode the power remains on, but the CPU and all other devices are in
sleep mode.
NOTE: When the AC adaptor is used, the computer goes into Standby
mode depending on the setting of the TOSHIBA Power Saver feature.
· To restore operation, press the power button or press any key. The latter
action works only if Wake-up on Keyboard is enabled in HW Setup.
· If a network application is active when the computer automatically enters
Standby, it might not be restored when the computer wakes up from
standby. To prevent the computer from automatically entering standby
mode, disable Standby in TOSHIBA Power Saver. Open the Standby
setting. That action, however, will nullify the computer's Energy Star
compliance.
Standby precautions
Before entering Standby mode, be sure to save your data.
Do not install or remove a memory module while the computer is in standby
mode. The computer or the module could be damaged.
If you carry the computer on board an aircraft or into a hospital, be sure to shut
down the computer in hibernation mode or in shutdown mode to avoid radio
signal interference.
