Chkdsk : Same Error Every Time

[Guest Frank]

In Windows xp sp3, from a command prompt, I type:

 

chkdsk d: /v/r

 

d is an internal hard drive, NTFS, used for backups, and it's brand

new. I get the same error message every single time:

 

Cleaning up 2 unused index entries from index $SII of file 9.

Cleaning up 2 unused index entries from index $SDH of file 9.

Cleaning up 2 unused security descriptors.

Fixing mirror copy of the security descriptors data stream.

Security descriptor verification completed.

 

How can I fix this? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Re: Chkdsk : Same Error Every Time

 

Some "Resident" applications can cause Chkdsk to incorrectly

report problems. However, since all your issues are MFT type

the NTFS Metadata seems corrupted. What size is this disk &

was it's structure created with Windows Disk Management or

a 3rd-party disk management program ? Backup software also

can create/modify disk structure - what backup app do you use ?

I set up the disk's partitions with Seagate "Sea tools". I use

Acronis True Image and Syncback for my backups.

How many files do you have on the volume?

I'll check on the exact number of files. The number will be in the

thousands, as there are multiple backup sets. It's a 500 gb drive.

 

Fortunately, I have another full backup on yet another drive. So

maybe I should repartition and reformat drive d. That should end the

issue or, if not, indicate a problem with the hardware. What do you

think?

Probably worth doing. But wait to see if R. comes back with any

suggestions. He may not; some people just like to waste time, but he

asked the right questions so should have some idea in mind.
