Protection OFF TOSHIBA HDD Protection is active. The HDD head is in a safe position. TOSHIBA HDD Protection is disabled. Detection Level There are four sensitivity levels in which vibrations, impacts and their similar signs are detected can be set to OFF, 1, 2 and 3 in ascending order. Level 3 is recommended for better protection of the computer. However, when the computer is used in a mobile environment or in other unstable conditions, setting the detection level to 3 could result in frequent execution of HDD Protection, which will slow down HDD reading and writing. Set a lower detection level when the speed of HDD reading and writing is a priority. Different detection levels can be set depending on whether the computer is used as handheld or mobile usages, or whether it is used in a stable environment such as on a table in the workplace or at home. By setting different detection levels for the computer depending on whether it runs with the AC power (desktop) or with batteries (handheld or mobile usage), the detection level automatically switches according to the power connection mode. Detection Level Amplification When the AC adaptor is disconnected, HDD Detection assumes that the computer will be carried and sets the detection level to the maximum for 10 seconds. Default You can reset HDD Protection settings to factory default by first clicking Default button and then Apply button. 3D Viewer This feature displays a 3D object on the screen which moves in according to tilting or vibration of the computer. When HDD Protection detects computer vibration the HDD head is parked and the 3D object disk rotation stops. When the head is un-parked the disk begins to rotate again. Click 3D Viewer button to start. This 3D object virtually represents the computer's internal HDD. This representation might vary from the actual number of disks, disk rotation, head movement, part size, shape and direction. User's Manual 5-12

Protection
TOSHIBA HDD Protection is active. The HDD
head is in a safe position.
OFF
TOSHIBA HDD Protection is disabled.
Detection Level
There are four sensitivity levels in which vibrations, impacts and their
similar signs are detected can be set to OFF, 1, 2 and 3 in ascending
order. Level 3 is recommended for better protection of the computer.
However, when the computer is used in a mobile environment or in other
unstable conditions, setting the detection level to 3 could result in frequent
execution of HDD Protection, which will slow down HDD reading and
writing. Set a lower detection level when the speed of HDD reading and
writing is a priority.
Different detection levels can be set depending on whether the computer is
used as handheld or mobile usages, or whether it is used in a stable
environment such as on a table in the workplace or at home. By setting
different detection levels for the computer depending on whether it runs
with the AC power (desktop) or with batteries (handheld or mobile usage),
the detection level automatically switches according to the power
connection mode.
Detection Level Amplification
When the AC adaptor is disconnected, HDD Detection assumes that the
computer will be carried and sets the detection level to the maximum for 10
seconds.
Default
You can reset HDD Protection settings to factory default by first clicking
Default
button and then
Apply
button.
3D Viewer
This feature displays a 3D object on the screen which moves in according
to tilting or vibration of the computer.
When HDD Protection detects computer vibration the HDD head is parked
and the 3D object disk rotation stops. When the head is un-parked the disk
begins to rotate again.
Click
3D Viewer
button to start.
This 3D object virtually represents the computer's internal HDD. This
representation might vary from the actual number of disks, disk
rotation, head movement, part size, shape and direction.
