Not necessarily. Have you tried using Disk Utility to view the drives?

They may not be formatted correctly and will not appear on your desk  
top because of that. If they show up in the Disk Utility window's  
drive list, then just select them, one at a time, and format them in  
Mac OS Extended format.
