How do you encrypt your cold storage hard drives? (full disk vs container) (zerobytes.monster)

I encrypted a 3.5 inch external hard drive with Veracrypt and then shucked it. Then when I mounted it to a docking station, the hard drive will not mount. When I put the hard drive back inside the enclosure it worked again.

Is it better to encrypt entire disk (which will cause these kinds of problems) or use volume containers (which can be seen by unwanted eyes, and also can be easily/accidentally deleted)??
