Another way is through atacontrol:

    # atacontrol list
    ATA channel 0:
        Master:  ad0 <WDC WD2000JB-98GVA0/08.02D08> ATA/ATAPI revision 6
        Slave:       no device present
    ATA channel 1:
        Master:      no device present
        Slave:       no device present
    ATA channel 2:
        Master:  ad4 <WDC WD2500JS-55NCB1/10.02E01> Serial ATA II
        Slave:       no device present
    ATA channel 3:
        Master:      no device present
        Slave:       no device present

Then you can use fdisk/bsdlabel/newfs on ad2 as usual :)
