quiet setting.

 

Suggested — The hard drive operates at the

 

level suggested by the drive manufacturer.

drive heads to move faster, causing the hard drive to

 

be noisier. However, some drives may not see an

 

increase in data transfer rates.

 

NOTE: Changing the acoustics setting does not alter

 

your hard drive image.

Power Management menu) is enabled, the computer

 

can only be powered up remotely from Suspend.

off for most components, however, system memory
