I ran the chkdsk /f command for my external Toshiba 2TB hard drive. It ran the first two stages just fine. However, gave an error at the 3rd Stage. Following is the output log from chkdsk at Stage 3 via event viewer. Can anyone tell me what this error is and how to resolve it? Note: I am using Windows 10
Thanks,
