reformat 1TB part of the linux drive to NTFS
you do not say WHAT it is ?
(ext2,ext3,ext4, LVM,btfs,.... )

you can not do that from a MS windows box
Microsoft will NOT see or recognize a NON Microsoft drive format .

You will need to set up your linux server with some form of ISCSI Target software, google it for whatever linux distribution you are using.
