Hello everyone.
I have a Lenovo Laptop with Windows 8 and Probox 4-bay enclosure with 4 hard drives.
These are the drives in order from top to bottom:
1. WD red 2tb
2. WD Green 2tb (old sata II)
3. WD Green 2tb (newer sata III)
4. Seagate 2.5" 1tb (was originally in the laptop, substituted with a Samsung 840 EVO 120gb)
The enclosure is connected to the laptop with USB 3.0
Everything was working fine for the passes year, apart from the fact that sometimes when I tuned on the enclosure one drive was not showing up.
A while ago, windows asked me to check and fix the drive #3 when I turned them on and so I did, but it kept asking me that every time I turned the enclosure on, until I realized an entire folder disappeared because of the check disk. After searching, googling and trying recover software I found the files under the Folder.0001 due to check disk. I was able to recover all the files simply going into a sub folder of Folder.0001 because explorer wouldn't want to go directly to that folder.
Anyway after all of this I backed up my files, I run surface testes and all my drives are perfectly healthy, no SMART warnings. Still, every time I turn the enclosure on, windows wants to run check disk on both #1 and #3 and only once on #4.
I tried disabling windows check disk following
this guide, the Shell Hardware Detection is disabled and not running, but I still get asket to run check disk. It's annoying and if it get's clicked by mistake, I might loose some files.
What's your advice on how to handle this?
Thanks.
