Yes. But why do you want to corrupt your data further?
OP
It is not corrupted and there is no damage. And a scan disk as ran everyday in Windows on my server. So why have it at start up? It's just a waste of time and quite annoying.
How do you turn it off?

Well is there a way to turn this off?
To disable disk checking at startup open the command prompt and type:
chkntfs /x C:
Replace C with the letter of the drive you don't want windows to check at startup. Use chkntfs /? for more infomation.
Hope this helps.
