Different hibernate modes on MacBook Pro? Sorry if this question will appear to be stupid.
Is it possible to set one hibernate mode (for example 3) when macbook is on power adapter and another hibernate mode (25) when it’s on battery. Is it absolutely nonsense or...? hehe
Thanks in advance
Yes, you can set different hibernation modes with pmset.
Most articles on the subject give the command pmset -a hibernatemode X (where X is a number). The -a flag is for 'all' modes: you can alternatively set -b for battery and -c for charger.
Whether there's any benefit in doing so, is another matter! Modern RAM is quite efficient, and you're not likely to reap significant battery time savings: you'll just slow down the sleep and wake processes. The 25 setting was used in much older laptops.
