Computer Longevity

Using your PC’s hibernation mode can save not only electricity but also lengthen the life of your computer. That’s because internal components such as hard drive and memory do wear out over time- the longer these components remain on, the shorter their life will be.
Hard drives, in particular, wear out, since they contain moving parts and are very fragile. So allowing your PC to "Hibernate" is a good idea.
