Re: Ipod Chkdsk Utility

Chkdsk would check the files and drive for corruption and damaged sectors and attempt o put any file damage right. It's one thing you can try prior to formatting otherwise you could end up formatting and reloading the Ipod instead of just allowing chkdsk to attempt to quickly repair the damage.
