Yes. Though the drives are not mounted by default, just clicking on the icon does the trick. If you want the hard drive to be writeable, you must enable write mode. Note: this does not apply to NTFS (WinXP/2000 optional file system), which is read-only under Linux, but writing is OK with the MS FAT format.
