Where do you expect the drives to be shown?

If you run "cat /proc/scsi/scsi", do you see the SCSI drives listed? If
not, then you have cabeling (termination) problem, maybe. If listed,
then check the output of "fdisk -l". The SCSI drives are /dev/sdX,
counted by their SCSI ID. With the data seen running fdisk listening the
partitions you should be able to mount specific partitions.

Let's take you have one ext2 partition being /dev/sdc1. You may create
for that a mountpoint with "mkdir /mnt/scsi3_1". To mount then run
"mount -t ext2 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/scsi3_1". Further information in "man
mount" and "man fstab".
