What is my slave drive called?

In Slack it's hdb but in BSD I have a choice between ado and ad1, I don't know what to choose here, one is my Win disc and the other is my Linux disc. I can't have my Win disc erased. I know that my Linux disc is the slave so if anyone could tell me what drive to select that would be excellent.

A quick reply would be very appreciated considering I'm running setup right now. Thanks for the help.

BTW...when you go to do your partitions, you should be able to see the existing partition types and figure out what you have where.
