No you cannot disable them - for a good reason too, it can indicate, but not always, a device that is about to fail completly. Make sure you have good backups on any important data to be on the safe side.

Run chkdsk and see what happens from there. Normally it is caused by the NTFS MFT (Master file table) is corrupted, chkdsk should be able to fix the MFT.
