I sent a few files to the trash bin from my second harddrive. I then did a complete reinstall of xubuntu with everything wiped clean on my main drive. To my suprise the contents of the trash bin were still there. Am I correct in assuming its because those files in the trash bin are from the second hard drive.
I apologise if my english is not perfect, not my native language.

There is a chance the second drive didn't get reformatted so all the content was still there as it wasn't touched. So yes you are correct they are from the second drive

The trash bin stores files in the device they were deleted from.
If you press Ctrl + H in your File manager, you'll see .Trash-1000 directory on each partition.
So you are correct. If you format one drive, thrashed files will be kept on another device.
