Try yast (type yast while logged in as root) go to "Einstellungen zur 
Installation" then "Festplatte(n) partitionieren" then choose your new 
harddisk, create 2 partitions, one should be a 128Mb Swap-partition (it's 
always good to have a bit more swap) and an Ext3 one (or ext2)
Make sure you choose the right harddisk.

Then choose  "Ziel-Partitionen/Dateisysteme festlegen" and tell it to 
mount it to a directory named /platte2 or something. 
Then you should be able to store stuff in there.

Now it depends on what you want to do. Do you want to move all your video 
to the new disk or what?
