When adding a new hard drive how to get it show up in the Computer section?


Hello,

I have added a new 500GB drive to my system and mounted it to the folder successfully however I don't know how to get this to show up in the Computer Icon which would be great instead of having to drill down in the file structure to get at it, or create a short cut on the desktop.

How does one add a new mounted hard drive into the Computer Icon in Gnome?

My drive is currently mounted under /mnt/driveF
