Your report is not consistent. According to the description, the missing
partitions are on the second disk. The mtab says:

/dev/sda10 /home ext3 rw,acl,user_xattr 0 0

and the fstab:

/dev/sdb11 /work ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1

Can you please restate which partitions should be on which disks.

You can find partitions with filesystems by using the file(1) utility. For
example:

# ls /dev/disk/by-id/
..
scsi-SATA_HTS721010G9SA00_MPDZN7Y0HNE9JL-part1

# file - < /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_HTS721010G9SA00_MPDZN7Y0HNE9JL-part1

See the content of /proc/partitions for all partitions found on the system:

$ cat /proc/partitions

Note that the names will probably be different.

You should be better off by referencing disks using the by-id path rather than
the old style sdx names. Even better, label filesystems using tune2fs (or
similar for non-ext2/3 filesystems) and use the labels in the fstab:

tune2fs -L work /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_Maxtor_6L250S0_L60WGGJH-partxx

/etc/fstab: LABEL=work /work ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1
