I have four hard drives in my computer and one has windows 7 and the other has windows 10. When i boot into windows 10 and restart the computer to boot into windows 7, Windows 7 wants to run disk check every time. But if i am in win 7 and restart the computer and boot back into win 7 it will boot up normally. It seem only to do it when i restart from win 10 and boot into win7 and win 7 want to check all four disk. Is there a way to stop this? I ran my antivirus and it didn't find nothing. The antivirus check all four hard drives. Thanks for the help.

    To stop checking all four disk, you must run CHKDSK command on command prompt as follows.

    Example : (C Drive)

    CHKDSK C: /F
    or
    CHKDSK C: /R

    It will perform when the PC boots, but it takes a few of time.

    I recommend to check HDD status by CrystalDiskInfo utility.

    If your Win10 partition of HDD is alive, you must use BCDEDIT command to boot Windows 10.
    I use EasyBCD utility to edit boot loader easily instead of BCDEDIT.

    P.S. I don't recommend to use 4 HDD on same PC as internal if possible.
    I use 1 SDD (256GB) + 2 HDD.
