Being "hdb" may indicate that it's connected to the same controller as "hda" and might not be jumpered for slave. Or it might be a bad cable, a controller which doesn't like two drives, a dubious power connector, etc. Or if he doesn't have an hda, perhaps the kernel doesn't like a secondary drive without a primary.

Hello all,
I added extra IDE drive I get similar messages like below so I replace
it another drive but I am still getting similar error messages on
2.6.29-rc2-tip:
hdb: status error: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hdb: status error: error=0x40 <3>{ UncorrectableError },
LBAsect=208845, sector=0
Uncorrectable Error is an error from the drive, not the kernel. Looks
like you have bad sectors on that drive.
