how do I format my SSD plugged in as external

I have an SSD plugged in as an external drive through some sort of an adapter, what I'm wondering is how do I format that drive when I'm running a HDD right now? Do I just right click on the drive and format? I'm running Windows 8.
Thanks in advance!

As long as the drive is recognized by Windows, you can simply format it as you described or through Disk Management.

A SSD you have to align. I have made this little tutorial that will show you how to do it.
