The TOSHIBA Product Improvement Program or it's use does not in any way expand or modify TOSHIBA obligations under its standard limited warranty. TOSHIBA standard limited warranty terms and limitations apply. Using the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection Some models have the function for reducing the risk of damage on the Hard Disk Drive. Using an acceleration sensor built into the computer, HDD Protection detects vibration shocks and similar signs of movement of the computer, and automatically moves the Hard Disk Drive head to a safe position to reduce the risk of damage that might be caused by head-to-disk contact. HDD Protection function does not guarantee that the Hard Disk Drive will not be damaged. During audio/video playback, when the computer detects a shock or vibration and the Hard Disk Drive's head is parked, the playback might be temporarily interrupted. HDD Protection cannot be used in models that are equipped with SSD. When vibration is detected, a notification is displayed on the screen, and the icon in the Taskbar changes to the protection state. This message is displayed until the OK button is pressed or 30 seconds pass. When vibration subsides, the icon returns to the normal state. Setting up HDD Protection You can change HDD Protection settings. To open the utility, click System Settings -> HDD Protection under TOSHIBA group in All apps. The utility can also be started from the icon in the Taskbar or from the Control Panel. HDD Protection You can enable or disable HDD Protection by moving the slider to the right or left. HDD Protection does not work when the computer is booting, in Sleep Mode, in Hibernation Mode, in transition to Hibernation Mode, recovering from Hibernation Mode, or powered off. Do not subject the computer to vibration or impact while the protection is disabled. User's Manual 5-15
