When you added your new drive and mounted it as /home, did you do anything to the old disk (repartition, reformat?) if not, then you've probably got your new disk and its data mounted at /home. If you unmount /home, you should be able to "uncover" your old /home on the old drive and clean it up. Then remount the new drive on its /home mountpoint.
