I have a terabyte (NTFS) external hard drive with a bunch of files in folders, how can I find the necessary files on it by name in Mac OS X?

Try typing in terminal:

/usr/bin/mdutil -i on /Volumes/nameOfExternalHDD
/usr/bin/mdimport /Volumes/nameOfExternalHDD

Where nameOfExternalHDD is the name of the external hard drive. Spotlight should then re-index it.
