It is not recommended that you disable checking. From the man page:
You should strongly consider the consequences of
disabling mount-count-dependent checking entirely.
Bad disk drives, cables, memory, and kernel bugs
could all corrupt a filesystem without marking the
filesystem dirty or in error. If you are using
journaling on your filesystem, your filesystem will
never be marked dirty, so it will not normally be
checked. A filesystem error detected by the kernel
will still force an fsck on the next reboot, but it
may already be too late to prevent data loss at
that point.
