  What do you mean by "still on my first drive"? You can keep Windows and install Ubuntu.

  @Pilot6 That question and answer don't cover the "something else" method of installing to a separate disk. I think this one is more appropriate: askubuntu.com/a/163544/167115

You "are" not on any drive. To install Linux, for example Ubuntu, on your second drive, you boot your computer from for example a live DVD, instead of starting Windows. That live DVD offers you to install Linux. During the installation you can select which drive you want to install Linux on by selecting the option "something else" when the installer asks you if you want to install "along side windows". If necessary, you can create the appropriate partitions and the like.

Your main drive with Windows should show up as /dev/sda and your extra drive should show up as /dev/sdb but this can change so you will want to verify this to make sure this is the case before you proceed with the installation.

Be aware that if you install Linux on your second drive (or any operating system on any drive, for that matter), all data that's currently on that drive gets overwritten. So you might want to move stuff beforehand.

In the installation process you also set up a boot loader. That boot loader offers you the choice the choice to start Linux or to start Windows every time you start your computer.
