Choosing the Quiet Drive Options
The Quiet Drive is an optional feature and may or may not be included on your computer.
If this computer is equipped with a Quiet Drive or, if you choose to install a Quiet Drive, you may configure the drive to operate in Quiet mode or Performance mode (default). When idle, the Quiet Drive produces an acoustic noise level approximately 4 decibels (dB) lower than that of a standard drive. When configured to operate in Quiet mode, the Quiet Drive reads and writes data at an acoustic noise level approximately 7 dB lower than that of a standard drive.
When configured to operate in Quiet mode, the drive will not operate at maximum performance levels. For maximum drive performance, set the drive to operate in Performance mode.
