[Bug 272360] Re: Ubunto not recognizing second hard drive

[JohnnyK]

Teej,

Thanks for the reply...  There are no stupid questions.  You make an
excellent point, however, there really are two physical hard drives:

My primary drive is: Seagate ST3120026AS 114439 MB SATA NTFS
My Second drive is : Seagate ST3400633AS 381552 MB SATA NTFS

Both are Seagate, and SATA with NTFS formatting but different
capacities.

Cheers,
John
