So my question is 1) what do I use to 'see' the 2nd harddrive

You need to a) partition it (fdisk or cfdisk) b) format it (mkXYZfs, where XYZ is the filesystem-type of your choice) c) mount it (mount and/or fstab)

2) how do I format it for use w/o messing up my 1st drive

Since fdisk and mkfs take the device-file as an option, you should be fine if you avoid typos.


3) how do I make it part of my existing filesystem

Mount it where you want it to be :)

helps you if you want to use the new drive for already existing directories.

HTH,

Stefan
