The chkdsk process is usually completed in 5 hours for 1TB drives, and if you’re scanning a 3TB drive, the required time triples.
As we already mentioned, chkdsk scan can take a while depending on the size of the selected partition.
How long does chkdsk usually take?
If you follow this convention, you should be able to chkdsk the data volume “online” with no downtime. If a problem does crop up, I would set aside a reasonable maintenance window of atleast 8 hours, but it might take <30 minutes to fully run. A clean 1TB volume should check disk in <5 minutes.
