It is possible to schedule chkdsk to run however chkdsk will not scan more

than one drive at a time. The only way I can imagine you could do it would

be to create a batch file with the chkdsk commands you wanted to run (one

for each disk) in it and schedule execution of the batch file. Are you

familiar with batch files?.

Somewhat puzzled why you would want to do that. The system will do it

automatically on a reboot when it detects a problem. Otherwise you would

suspect an issue with one of the data drives and do it then. But ALL

disks, is a bit over the top, this isn't Windows 95 and FAT32.

Or use Task Scheduler.
