Hi.. having a look around i have found the info you are loking for at this site.

Save to Disk defined

Used primarily when running from a battery, Save to Disk allows the user to place the laptop in virtual suspended animation. When the user suspends the laptop, a snapshot is taken of everything happening on the computer, and this information is then saved on the hard drive in the Save to Disk partition. The laptop can then be powered off to save battery life. When the system is powered on again, the laptop will return to the state it was in before it was suspended. Depending on the particular system configuration, Save to Disk can be configured from within the BIOS and/or through Windows.
