Standby Mode; Hibernate Mode - Fujitsu LifeBook P Series Manual

a The Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-
Disk) mode should not be used with
certain PC Cards. Check your PC Card
documentation for more information. When
PC Cards or external devices are in use,
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode cannot
return to the exact state prior to
suspension, because all of the peripheral
devices will be re-initialized when the
system restarts.
a If your LifeBook notebook is actively
accessing information when you enter the
Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-Disk)
mode, changes to open files are not lost.
The files are left open and memory is kept
active during Suspend mode or the
memory is transferred to the internal hard
drive during Hibernation mode.
a The main advantage of using the
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) function is that
power is not required to maintain your data.
This is particularly important if you will be
leaving your LifeBook notebook in a
suspended state for a prolonged period
of time. The drawback of using Hibernation
mode is that it lengthens the power down
and power up sequences and resets
peripheral devices.
