I keep finding conflicting results on this, so I'm looking for expert insight.
I mentioned yesterday that I have a RAID 5 array that has a handful of corrupt files. Chkdsk in read-only mode shows: "CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)... File record segment 575200 is corrupt.0 file records processed) 2953600 file records processed. File verification completed. 832 large file records processed. Errors found. CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode." Is it safe to run chkdsk /f on a RAID 5 array? Not chkdsk /r-I know I don't want chkdsk looking for bad sectors. But is the /f parameter safe?
