Not quite.

/dev/hda = master drive on primary controller
/dev/hdb = slave drive on primary controller
/dev/hdc = master drive on secondary controller
/dev/hdd = slave drive on secondary controller

What he should use is /dev/hdc.  /dev/hdb1 is the first partition on the
slave drive on the primary controller.
