Simple question, but it needs to be asked. When you say sdb didn't show up under something else, it's worth double-checking this. The something else window is quite small and you have - ahem - a lot of partitions. Are you sure you didn't just need to scroll down a bit? The now-you-see-it-now-you-don't scroll thingy is easily missed in Ubuntu.

not be more than 5 partitions on a hard drive and I have many. May be that is the reason.

Sadly I don't have multi partitions on my hard drive because the is only Linux onboard

The whole multi-partition thing started with Unix/Linux as a way to separate out 'fixed' bits from variable (and expanding) -so I had it right from my first install
