I'm trying to read some old SATA drives using a Liteon Ultra enclosure.
windows disk management (Win10 Pro)sees the disk but says it needs to be

Any ideas as to how to procede?
TIA Iain


Boot a live linux CD and use better tools

Out of iunterest why are you usin an enclosure? isn't it easier to link
the sata cables to your motherboard?
