Using Hibernation Mode
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.
Restarting from Hibernation mode uses a little more time 
and battery power than restarting from Stand by because 
information is being retrieved from the hard disk instead 
of memory.
When starting up again, the computer returns to the state 
in which you left it, including all open programs and files 
you were using.
