Using The Shut Down Command - Toshiba DX730-ST6N01 User Manual

Sleep mode
The Sleep command places the computer into a power-saving
mode. Sleep saves the current state of the computer to memory so
that, when you restart the computer, you can continue working from
where you left off.
NOTE
Factors to consider when choosing Sleep:
❖
Restarting from Sleep takes less time than restarting after
turning off the computer using the Hibernation or Shut down
commands.
❖
When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode in
which you left it, including all open programs and files you
were using.
