Chkdsk fails on my corrupt partition... can't figure it out!

This is what happens:

C:\Users\Administrator.ODIN>chkdsk /f D:
The type of the file system is NTFS.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Chkdsk may run if this volume is dismounted first.
ALL OPEN HANDLES TO THIS VOLUME WOULD THEN BE INVALID.
Would you like to force a dismount on this volume? (Y/N) Y
Volume dismounted. All open handles to this volume are now invalid.
Volume label is RAID.

CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)...
0 percent complete. (0 of 173568 file records processed)
Deleting corrupt attribute record (160, $I30)

C:\Users\Administrator.ODIN>

Every time I run it, either CLI, via the GUI, or on system boot, this happens. It just stoppes at 0 percent. If I run it read-only, it overflows with errors (I get the "This filesystem has errors" message and the scanning stops).

I've tried looking for alternatives to chkdsk but everything I find is a raw disk scanner (which turns up no errors). I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on this?
 
take hdd out and put it in an external enclosure and then attach it to another PC and then run CHKDSK.

It's a RAID array attached to a PERC 5/i... can't happen. I can try dual-booting something though, or putting it in Hyper-V and giving the RAID to it...

EDIT: I've traced the problem to my RAID controller due to terrible HD Tune benchmarks... Mods, please close this thread. It is no longer relevant.
