What does it show when you do a long listing of the/dev directory? You might be able to see a link pointing to something. Personally, this is one of my pet peeves of Linux. Why does it put all possible device names in therre when in actuality, only a handful are used at one time? If I've got two harddrives in the system, I only want to see the /dev/hda and /dev/hdb or /dev/sda and /dev/sdb devices listed in the /dev/directory.
