   Ubuntu will probably automatically mount the drive, in which case you should be able to browse to it through /dev or /mnt. If it does not do this, you will need to manually mount the drive, using a command such as:

   mount /dev/hda1

   You may then run into access issues where Ubuntu does not want to allow you to manipulate the files. Also, be careful when accessing a hard drive that uses NTFS file system, as Linux does not play well and damaged or corrupted data could result.
