Will Linux recognize my drive?

When the time on my free Win7 installation runs out, I want to switch to linux, not sure about the distro yet, maybe one of the *buntus or fedora. I have 2 drives on my windows installation. The C: drive, with all the windows files, which i’d be formatting to replace with linux, and a G: drive, which has all my pictures, music, videos, etc. It is formatted to NTFS (i’m not sure if this matters). Once I install linux, will it be able to recognize my G: drive? I’d go burn a live disk but I don’t have any extra cds.

thanks!

How much space do you suggest I partition to dual install Linux and XP?

I am currently running Windows XP and I plan on installing Ubuntu from a Live CD. I have 15GB’s of free space on my C: drive, don’t worry I have two drives if you think that’s to little. I was wondering how much space would you suggest I partition to install Ubuntu on?
