How do I mount the second hard drive?

Scenario: Our RaQ's hard disk got some corruption that caused it to become unable to boot. The RackShack technicians replaced the hard disk with a fresh one, and attached the old hard disk as the slave drive in order to enable us to get our data.

Problem: I don't know how to get the secondary hard drive mounted in order to get at the data.

Can anyone help us figure out how to do it? We're under a 48 hour time limit (RackShack is going to take the hard drive back after 48 hours).

Code:
[root /]# df -k
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1               743466    585670    157796  79% /
/dev/hda3               198601     10318    188283   5% /var
/dev/hda4             17671528    136709  17534819   1% /home
[root /]# mount
/dev/hda1 on / type ext2 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda3 on /var type ext2 (rw,nosuid)
/dev/hda4 on /home type ext2 (rw,usrquota,grpquota,grpid)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=0622)
[root /]# mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb old
mount: /dev/hdb is not a valid block device
[root /]# hdparm -I /dev/hdb
/dev/hdb: Device not configured
