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?

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?

Much easier to drop the drive(s) into a docking station and plug that into a
USB3 port.
