It seems to me that the worst-case scenario, dropping the laptop,

milliseconds. Not much can be done to save the disk in such a short
time.

The sensor will notice already the start of the move. The notebook will then normally be accalerated with 1G as it simply goes into a free fall.

If the heads are then moved away from the disks and the notebook hits some ms later ground, it does not matter any more if this event takes micro- or milliseconds as the heads are already out of the danger zone.
