well i have a laptop (feel free to look at the specs) and i usually do hibernation to let my laptop rest to go do something and then i also see "sleep" mode right above the hibernation...what is the difference and which is better that loads up to my desktop faster and back to action? (meaning i be back to do what i uaually wanna do with my laptop like youtube or emails and that).
what do you guys think? thanks
A major difference between sleep and hibernate is power consumption....

so...sleep is something like a short time thing (minutes to hours) and hibernation is for a long time thing (hours)
something like that is correct?
