I intend to run a CHKDSK /B /X on a HDD (from another machine) attached to a Win 8.1 system.
I read this a few times but not sure IF/ WHEN & WHY & HOW should I leverage these switches. I can read whats written, but.. Not really clear.

- /scan - Can only be used with a NTFS disk. Runs a online scan on the volume.
- /forceofflinefix - Can only be used with a NTFS disk. Must be used with /scan switch. Bypass all online repair; all defects found are queued for offlne repair (ex: "chkdsk /spotfix").
- /perf - Can only be used with a NTFS disk. Must be used with /scan switch. Uses more system resources to complete a scan as a fast as possible. This may have a negative performance impact on other tasks running on your system.
- /spotfix - Can only be used with a NTFS disk. Runs spot fixxing on the volume.
