Hi everyone! First thing to know is that I have removable disk drives and there are 6 all together. Second, I installed Windows 8 Pro on it's own physical drive and it works just fine. If I remove the Windows 8 drive, and put my Windows 7 drive back in, then the OS initially does a chkdsk of each of my disk drives. All boots thereafter don't do this. But if I remove the Windows 7 drive, and put Windows 8 back in, it initially runs a chkdsk again. But doesn't do it in boots thereafter if I leave the drive in place.
Ouestion: this takes about 5-10 minutes every time I swap OS's. It never did this when I swapped with Vista or XP system drives...only with Windows 8. How can I prevent this...or can I? It's just that this takes so darn long to run chkdsk on 5 other disk drives every time I change between win 7 and Win 8 system drives.
Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks.
