This is true for chkdsk too. Both are supposed to run in read-only mode
when run on a mounted volume.

Chkdsk is fine, if the hardware of known to be OK. Otherwise, it's GIGO.

Makes sense. Cables and terminators are more likely to fail, but drives
can fail too.
In that case, you might want to try to letting dfsee clone the bad volume
to freespace on a known good drive. This should not leave you any worse
off than before. Dfsee is just doing low level I/O when cloning, so any
file structure damage will not bother the cloning operation.
