Warning: You should upgrade the power supply to a RaQ3/4 supply.
The RaQ2 power supply will not readily power 2 drives.
If you do upgrade the power supply, just use a 2 drive IDE cable
configure the second drive as a slave.

If you want it on-line all the time (reboot), you need to add it to
/etc/fstab. Else, you need to mount it when you want to use it.

Of course you need to partition it, and run mke2fs.
