Question: Recently in running chkdsk /r on my system drive (platter drive, Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit) I’ve gotten back “4 EA records processed” and “76 reparse records processed”. ?Am I right in assuming these aren’t problematic reports? ?Do most NTFS system drives report back EA and reparse records processed when chkdsk is run?

Answer: This is perfectly normal for a chkdsk report.
