Hi,

I've got a dual CPU machine, however I can't seem to run more than one Disk
check at a time on my external USB drives (even thought they're attached to
different controllers)... why is that ?
 
Because.

Because that's the way Chkdsk is designed to work.

You can run them sequentially from the command line:

for %x in (c d e f g h) do chkdsk %x:

Or (untested) create a shortcut to run that command.

It's not exactly what you asked, but it at least leaves you free to
do other things.
