Sda and sdb showing in partition manager on one hard drive

Multi tool use
I have /sda and /sdb in my partition manager when installing ubuntu bionic beaver 18.04
I can only modify the /sda partition and since I have only one hard drive in my laptop I was wondering what was sdb doing there then.
Does this affect my performance or OS somehow?
Every thought is appreciated!
