Ah - not sure that does the same thing 
Power management - saves on electricity, so less burning of fossil fuels, which is good, but the process of heating/cooling components, and spinning up/down the hard disk, over time, accelerates wear, so you fill landfill sites. Tough choice - more waste, less pollution, or more pollution, less waste. |
Works on mine set up like that
