Time Machine reports encrypted and unencrypted disks during backup

I'm getting this message when trying to make a new backup to an erased disk that could no longer hold my files.


"Time Machine is backing up an encrypted disk and an unencrypted disk"


I don't remember ever encrypting the hard drive in my computer. So why is this issue? Is it because I have a password for the computer?
