So I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit on my computer.
I installed it on my 60gb SSD hard drive, and in the installation it never acknowledged the existence of my second hard drive.
The hard drive that I keep all my files on, and which I want to make my home folder if I can, is a Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB cache (WD1002FAEX).
I've read the following: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount but honestly cannot work out how to access the hard drive from my Ubuntu installation.
I did have Windows 7 64-bit prior to installing Ubuntu. I have backed up all the files on the hard drive, but if I could just access them straight off that would be super cool.
Does anyone know how I can use the second hard drive?
Thank you for your help
EDIT:
The following directories are currently in my /dev/ folder:
ati/, block/, bsg/, bus/, char/, cpu/, isk/, input/, mapper/, net/, pktcdvd/, pts/, shm/, snd/, and usb/

So very close to fixing it.. unfortunately on the last command you gave it says this:
$ sudo apt-get install linux-lts-backport-natty
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package linux-lts-backport-natty
Checking on http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppas reveals that it is only available for 10.04. Looks like I'll have to unplug and re-plug hardware if I want it working still :(
