Alright, so I have successfully installed the second hard drive, formatted, mounted and called it sally... well maybe not called it sally but you get the idea.
What I wan t is for the computer to browse both drives and report them in on space. In windows this is done by creating a link to the second drive in the first drive. In linux I was thinking it would be the same process maybe a 'symlink.'
This is new territory for me however and I can't seem to get it to work... and not surprisingly there is little information about it where I have been searching.
I will keep messing with the ln -s command and see if I can get it to work, other then that any help you guys could offer would be much appreciated.
Thanks

hm, you can do that in different ways.
- the "easy way" would be to change the mountpoint of the 2nd drive and mount it into a directory of the first drive.
-the "pro way" would be to use LVM and put both disks into a volume group.
-the "hardware way" would be to set up a JBOD RAID (if supported by the mobo).
