Mount SCSI Drive in Ubuntu

[mr.sly]

Hello.

You'll have to bare with me with this problem, I'm a complete n00b when it comes to Linux. But this might be the only way to save my data.

Woke up this morning and couldn't boot into Windows, kept saying it was unable to read from the disc. So I tried a Ubuntu LiveCD tonight, but the Windows drive was showing up as an SCSI drive (whatever that is). So I installed Ubuntu onto a spare hard drive but it's still showing up as an SCSI drive.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to mount this hard drive?

Thanks for the reply.

I haven't got RAID setup. I have another hard drive (the exact same drive as the one Windows is installed on) and I can mount that easy enough in Ubuntu by going to Place and selecting the drive.

But for some reason the Windows drive is showing as an SCSI drive.

Hi, thanks for the replies.

It was the latest release Ubuntu 8.10.

I realised I could just install Vista onto the hard drive instead of Ubuntu to try and get it working. The drive is showing up in device manager, but not my comptuer. And disk management fails to load with the drive attached.

So I think it's goodbye to my data and RMA time.

Cheers for the help. Went through the RMA process with Western Digital and they said I need to replace it. So getting a new one sent out now.
