That struck me as odd too. It's definitely a SATA drive, and the
ultrabay adapter is a SATA adapter.

I did not have to try a live CD. I rebooted and when Debian came back

What I still don't understand is why it did not automount when I
plugged it in. Nor was I able to mount it manually, for failure to know
what its device name was.
