Hello soon82,

Here is a quick web tutorial on how to partition, format and mount a second HDD that you might find useful: http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Unix/Linux/LINUX_PartitioningandFormattingSecondHardDrive_ext 3.shtml

In your case, remember to create a mount point that is within the directory that you are using as your SAMBA share.

Hope this post is useful for you.

Best wishes, :)
