when i plugged it in and "dmesg" it was a SCSI1.
then I rebooted with it in and I see "hub.c: new usb device 00:07.2-2.2, assigned address5"

So how do I navigate to the drive? Where does Slackware Linux hide this?
Runing 10.1 slack, btw.

 
Probably it's being emulated like a SCSI drive. On my Dell at work, USB keys pop up as /dev/sda (the first USB key I plug in), /dev/sdb (the second) and so on. Likely you have only one partition on the drive, so one of the following oughta work in a pinch (providing you have a dir /mnt/usb)

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb
mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb
