Figure 4-17 TOSHIBA HDD Protection Properties HDD Protection You can choose whether to enable or disable HDD Protection. Detection Level This function can be set to four levels. The 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 as handheld or in other unstable conditions, setting the detection level to 3 could result in frequent execution of HDD Protection, which will slow HDD reading and writing. Set a lower detection level when the speed of HDD reading and writing is a priority. 4-40 User's Manual
