Default Standby vs hibernate? Wesley-Mark

In a earlier post I was basically asking the same question and was treated
like a idiot because I am on a desktop. My original question remains
unanswered.
I shut down monitor and drives using power properties after a set number of
minutes but am curious if there is a deeper shutdown that I can implement
immediately (short of power off which if far from immediate). Standby locks
me up with screensaver displayed forcing power plug pulling.

Can someone please explain the difference between stanby and hibernate?
Does either take the place of shutting down the computer at night?
