Discussion Board
Explanation-

mount a USB hard disk drive (ie; external storage) on a Linux server, through the command line.

The external storage can be found in /dev/sde1, as shown in the message-log (the last lines).Make a new directory, and mount the device to that point.

# mkdir /mnt/usb-storage
# mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/usb-storage

Linux

if the USB name is hde1, then we can use the below option
mount /dev/hde1 /mnt/usb

I used to mount cd-rom using the below option,
mount /dev/cd-rom /mnt

USB mounting

i guess before ounting we have to check the USB is located on which name , then only we can able to mount.

Incorrect.

/dev/sda1 is NOT a USB device.
