BIOS SETUP
The Power Management submenu allows you to select the type (or degree) of power
saving. In addition to allowing you to set the inactivity period resulting in HDD Power
Down, inactivity periods can be set for the Doze and Suspend modes. The HDD can be
set to Power Down after inactivity periods of from “1 min.” to “15 min.”, or the parameter
can be “Disabled” keeping the HDD powered up at all times.
There are three selections
for Power Management. Two of them have fixed mode settings.
1. Min. Power Saving:
Minimum power management mode. Inactivity period is defined below:
Suspend Mode = 1 hr.
HDD Power Down = 1 hr.
2. Max. Power Saving:
Maximum power management mode. Inactivity period is defined below:
Suspend Mode = 1 min.
HDD Power Down = 1 min.
3. User Define:
Allows you to set each mode individually. Select the time-out period for each
mode shown above.

ACPI Suspend Type
Select the ACPI Suspend Type: “S1 (POS)” or “S3 (STR)”. If your expansion cards do
not support the STR (Suspend-to-RAM) function, you must leave this field on “S1 (POS)”
setting. The STR is an energy-saving feature. It takes only a few seconds to wake up
the system and return to the previous situation.
