Hard Disk Standby
The system will turn off the Notebook’s hard disk drive motor if it has not been
accessed after a specified period of time. The motor will be turned back on once
the system attempts to read or write data to it.
Global Standby
In Global Standby mode, the CPU clock will be stopped and most controllable
peripheral devices will be powered off. If the idle timer expires before any
system activity is detected, the system will change from Standby mode into
Suspend mode.
Suspend and Resume
When at extremely low power the system will halt operations yet retain all its
programming. This is called Suspend Mode. The Suspend Mode features three
levels: Powered-On-Suspend (POS) mode, Suspend-To-RAM (STR) mode, and
Suspend-To-Disk (STD) mode.
Be sure not to initiate the Suspend Mode when any of the disk drives is
accessed such as HDD, FDD and CD-ROM drive.
The system operation can be returned to exactly where it was suspended when
wake-up event occur. This is called Resume.
