How do I use 2 drives?

Hi! I'm trying to set up Linux on my PC for the first time. I'm using a 500GB drive for installation and important files, and a 1TB drive for storing all my other stuff. But I'm having some trouble with the 1TB drive not showing up. I tried following a tutorial with GParted, but I'm not sure if it worked. Any ideas?

Here is the tutorial:

Is the 1TB drive new/empty?

What you need to do is do some Manual partitioning from the installer - choose the 'something else' option. You would need to put EFI and '/' partitions on the 500 Gb, then make the 1 Tb '/home' to store all your data.
