After doing some checking I recommend you let it run it's course. I would not take the risk unless you are very savvy on these sort of things and can take the drive out of the ext. case if something goes wrong.
I guess it's just going to take a long time for it to complete. Sorry![url=http://www.enjin.com/bf3-signature-generator][img]http://sigs.enjin.com/sig-bf3/1fad512dc784c11c.png[/img][/url]
