Latest W10 update or hardware failure?
After the latest cumulative update, my data drive E: (WDC 2TB) would not allow access to some of its folders. Seems I no longer had permission, access was denied. Added "take ownership" to the context menu, pointed to the folders and was able to now open them. Did a reboot to recheck, now windows does not recognize the 2TB drive. Disk management says it is now RAW rather than NTFS??
System error log shows, "A corruption was discovered in the file system structure on volume E:", and detailed description "A corruption was found in a file system index structure. The file reference number is 0x100000000001d. The name of the file is "\$Extend\$RmMetadata\$TxfLog". The corrupted index attribute is ":$I30:$INDEX_ALLOCATION".
Reformatted/checkdisk the drive and it acted normal. This morning when I turned it on, W10 said my 2TB drive needed repair, repair returned it to operation. Reboot did the same thing. WDC utilities say the drive "passed"
So? does this sound like a W10 update problem or hardware problem. HDD is about 3 weeks old. Never had that problem until the latest update. Coincidence or?? Opinions appreciated.
