However I've no idea what distro your running, so no idea of what's lurking under the bonnet which may be trying to mount/lock/something with the drive or not ..
kubuntu gutsy with added mythbuntu.When this drive isn't attached, another drive on an ide controller card is sdb and that works fine. I have sdb1 and sdb2 in fstab, but since this drive new seems to lack a partition table or at least it can't be read, nothing is getting mounted.
