    Why not ask them to mount it ? This should be the minimum they can do even if your server is unmanaged.

    read about mount command.

    also if U like it to be mounted at boot time, edit fstab file

    reload fstab config with:

    mount -a

    if the hdd is not partitioned, use fdisk first. if U need help, ask.
