Hibernate by Jason

Sleep mode turns off most computer operations like the hard drive while keeping RAM powered to allow quick boot times when waking. It uses battery power and is best for short absences. Hibernation saves RAM contents to the hard drive, fully powers down to consume no power, and allows restoring files on startup but takes longer than sleep mode. It is best used for prolonged absences over hours from the computer.

Hibernate by Jason
- 3. Sleep This is sort of the inverse of hibernation: most of a computers operations (like the hard drive) are turned off and RAM is placed in a minimum power state. When you wake up your computer, it boots quickly. This is because your computer is still on and using power/battery life when its sleeping. Use this option if youre going to be away from your computer for a couple minutes or maybe an hour, like if you getting lunch or coffee. A sleeping computer is still a working computer: its still running basic functions and using electricity. After a while, putting your rig in sleep mode can affect your computers performance. Give your processor a break from time to time and shut down your computer. As with hibernation mode, you will not be able to use your computer when its asleep. Yes, your applications will still be running while your computers asleep, but theyll be in standby mode, and can be resumed once you wake up your computer. Hibernate This takes everything you have running on RAM, including open windows and apps, and moves it to a special file on your hard drive. Then your computer shuts down completely. When you turn your computer back on, it grabs everything saved in that file faster than if youd shut down the computer normally. This option doesnt consume any power or battery life because your computer is technically off. This option is best if youre going to be away from your computer for more than a few hours. The main downside of hibernate is that hibernating and rebooting your computer takes a lot longer than just letting it fall asleep then waking it back up. Time is a precious resource, and you dont want to waste it in front of a booting computer. So, only hibernate your computer if youre going to be away from it for prolonged amount of time. You will not be able to run any programs while your computer is hibernating.
