What drives do you want to use ? And what do you mean with using them ? What filesystem are they formatted in ?
Normally linux can read and write on partitions formatted in fat you just need to add a line to your fstab

Code:

/dev/<yourfatpartition> /mnt/<yourmountpoint> vfat defaults 0 0

you can create mount point wiht mkdir -p /mnt/<yourmountpointname>
