I must consider, what I need in the certain situation.
I often use the Knoppix (my favorite tool). It helped me several times when copying files from NTFS partition on a faulted HDD - another Windows system did not recognise a partition (presented it as RAW), while Knoppix mounted it as Read-only and I was able to save cca 90% of data (except of bad blocks).
On the other hand, You are not able to make chkdsk of NTFS partition from any Linux (I did not find any). This is a job for Windows (or at least the recovery console). And if somebody is not familiar with Linux, such "Live Windows" are very valuable.
