turned on, the previous state is restored. Note that the Hibernation Mode
feature does not save the status of any peripheral devices connected to the
computer.
Save your data. While entering Hibernation Mode, the computer saves
the contents of memory to the internal storage drive. However, for
safety sake, it is best to save your data manually.
Data will be lost if you disconnect the AC adaptor before the save is
completed.
To prevent data loss, do not switch to Hibernation Mode while
transferring data to external media, such as USB devices, memory
media, or other external memory devices.
