Can this disk be repaired? Does it need to be?

Once upon a time I had an external drive with NTFS on Linux.  I shared it
out with samba and NFS.

I didn't swap the drive from Linux to Windows, but I wanted to be able to.

FAT cannot be shared on NFS, NTFS can.
Support for NTFS with NTFS-3g isn't bad.
There *is* an ext2 (ext3?) module for Windows out there.

I would guess that swapping a drive between multiple OSes would cause
issues.  Each OS might have different implementations of the FS spec.  Or
how to fsck.
