Putting your computer into Hibernation completely shuts it down and draws no power at all. All of your progress, open data, and running software are packaged in a Hibernation File which is stored on the hard drive.
Advantages of Hibernate Mode:
- Freezes all progress securely on the hard drive
- Uses no battery life or outlet power
Disadvantages of Hibernate Mode:
- Takes longer to Hibernate and boot back up than Sleep Mode
- Does not help computer run faster by clearing memory
