In Stand By Mode nothing in memory is saved to disk.

A power-saving mode that is activated in order to conserve the battery. For example, depending on user settings, the hard disk may be turned off, the display may be turned down or off, and the CPU may be throttled down to a lower-power mode. Nothing in memory is saved to the disk, and restoring full operation is faster than turning the computer off or going into hibernation mode.
