    Is that "Orico Enclosure" an USB adapter ? If it is, connect to your computer, go to Disk Management and delete all partitions, make new one and format to NTFS.

    If you don't delete the partition, ensure you don't have a residual active partition on the now spare 120GB drive since this can confuse your PC when booting if the drive is connected. I use Minitool Partition Wizard to do this.
