My kind of new desktop computer sort of crapped out this week. Seems to be a disk drive issue.
Currently using my laptop to do a Windows CHKDSK command on the desktop disk drive (which I was able to remove from the desktop and using an external SATA device to interface with the drive). The desktop disk drive is a 1.0 Terabyte drive (1024 Gbytes = 1 Terabyte). I started the process last night and it is still on going. In fact the Windows 8.1 CHKDSK command is quoting an estimated run time of another 48 hours left to do.
I used to remember dealing with CHKDSK on 120 Gbyte disk drives, would take 4 to 6 hours to do.
