I don't see an attachment, but if you right click on an empty place on your 
desktop you should be able to choose from a popup, create new and then 
probably "hard disk" and then select the sdb4 device from the list  that 
drops down when you click on the arrow to the right of the blank space.  Then 
if you click on the device button it will go to icons selection and that is 
what will appear on the desktop. Sorry if I am not clear, but, HTH
