Yes it will read it, but you won't be able to save to that partition from Mandrake, or any Linux distro, unless you convert it to FAT (I wouldn't)

You may have to tweak the etc/fstab file if it doesn't see it by itself, but that is pretty easy, you just add a line to it (what the line is depends on the mount point) I found this example
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs umask=0,user,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

Just change /dev/hd** and mnt/ to what you want it to be.

HTH
