Hibernation command

The Hibernation command shuts the computer down
completely, but it first saves the current state of the computer
to the hard disk. Since Hibernation mode does not require
power to maintain the saved information, the system settings
are retained indefinitely. Restoring information from the hard
disk takes longer than restoring it from memory. When you
start up again, the computer runs a self-test, loads the
operating system, and then returns to the state in which you
left it.
Factors when choosing Hibernation mode:
❖
While in Hibernation mode, the computer uses no battery
power.
❖
Because the state of the system is held on the hard disk,
no data is lost if the battery discharges.
❖
Restarting from Hibernation mode uses less time and
battery power than restarting from Turn Off.
