Using HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection protects the hard drive by parking the drive and halting I/O
requests under one of the following conditions:
●
You drop the computer.
●
You move the computer with the display closed while the computer is running on battery power.
After one of these events, HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection returns the hard drive to normal
operation.
NOTE:
If the SmartBay contains a hard drive, the hard drive is protected by HP ProtectSmart Hard
Drive Protection. Hard drives that are in an optional docking device, or are connected to a USB port,
are not protected by HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection.
For more information, see the HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection Software Help.
