Windows scans disk on startup

[CasualGamer...]

I just successfully did a clean install of windows to my new ssd, and everything is very fast, except for one thing. Every time I boot up the system windows scans a disk, and says press any key to stop the scan. I am thinking that it is scanning the hard drive which has my old os partition and my data partition. I am using the data partition to store all of my games and large applications. What can I do to prevent windows from scanning the disk on startup? (my drive apparently has a few pending sectors according to crystal disk info, but the number has been stable for about a week, could this be the issue?)

disk management -> delete your old windows partition (all your old data will be gone, make sure its not your SSD)

Ok, I will try to do so, thanks for the feedback

It's possible its scanning an active disk, like, the current install (C:\).  If so, I'd let it run. If you do, it shouldn't come back again unless it needs to.
