Stephen, first check whether it is already mounted under /media.  Look 
carefully, as it may appear as just another hard drive.

If it definitely isn't there, run 'fdisk -l' to see what name it has been 
given (sda, or whatever) then mount that under /media.  You may have to do 
that as root, with obvious problems.  If you can do that, I'm sure someone 
will be able to tell you what to do to get user access to it.
