[CentOS] Jazz drive

Hi

We setup a server the other day for a client, and it has a 35gig jazz 
drive in it.

Centos 4.2 recognizes it as a cd disk.  How would I go abouts getting it 
to read and write to it?

When I click on the cd-rom disc icon it loads up cd/dvd creator.  
Shouldn't it just recognize it as an external drive?

Thanks
