Note:

 Once in Deep Sleep, your PC will consume significantly less 

power compared with Sleep mode, but it will take a little longer to 
wake up from Deep Sleep.

Deep Sleep and Sleep mode work together to ensure that your computer 
saves as much power as possible while still enabling quick, instant on 
access.

To save more power, your computer will typically enter and stay in Deep 
Sleep during times when it will not be frequently accessed, for example, 
during the middle of the night. To provide quicker access, your computer 
will enter and stay in Sleep mode during times when it will be frequently 
accessed, for example, during working hours.
