how to use USB HDD Argosy Hd 530?



I am trying to interface a Argosy USB Hard Disk HD 530 (10 GB) to my linux machine.

Here the info from my PC:


I am using Debian (testing) on a PIV machine

when I plug the usb cable of Hard disk i get the following in /var/log/messages:

*************
Sep  5 10:35:08 ws97 -- MARK --
Sep 5 10:47:43 ws97 kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 3 Sep 5 10:47:43 ws97 kernel: usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x4ce/0x2) is not claimed by any active driver.


*****************

Now I will show the modules allready loaded:

ws97:~# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
usb-uhci               20708   0  (unused)

cmpci                  26040   0
soundcore               3236   2  [cmpci]



Then I load the module usb-storage with :   modprobe usb-storage

and the outpot of /var/log/messages is:

Now i like to know :

1. Is the hard disk being recognized by the linux?
2. If yes, how to mount it for accessing it?



Thanking in advance
