The 2TB drive IS there, its /dev/sdb. It has a 1.8TiB partition.
When you start cfdisk, you need to specify the disk to use as a command line
parameter. It defaults to /dev/sda, which is why you are only seeing that
disk. Thats all it was!
Start cfdisk like this
/sbin/cfdisk /dev/sdb
or
sudo /sbin/cfdisk /dev/sdb
However you start it, ALL you need to do is just add /dev/sdb as a parameter.
and you'll be editing /dev/sdb.
Alternatively, you can try GParted.
I suspected that it was something like that.
