When you put your computer to sleep, your running programs stay in the memory (RAM) and your computer keeps drawing power to keep the RAM running. Hibernation on the other hand stores the content of your computer's memory on the hard disk in a hidden protected system file (C:/ hiberfil.sys ) which generally consumes disk space equal to 75% of your computer's RAM size. This means that all your running programs and open documents are stored on your computer's hard disk as opposed to staying in the RAM.

This leads to a reduction in the amount of power consumed as your computer does not constantly need power to keep your RAM running. This article contains some methods you can use to...
