Hi,

1. If the directory isn't there already, type:

     sudo mkdir /mnt/storage

2. Based on what you've told us previously, the drive with the
recordings is currently /dev/sdb2. So type:

     sudo blkid /dev/sdb2

Change the device name if that isn't the correct one.

3. *Assuming* its UUID hasn't changed (and that I read your
other posts correctly), you'd put this in /etc/fstab:

      UUID=3769e2e8-adde-456c-86e4-0402be737ef6 /media/storage ext4 defaults 0 2

4. Then type:

     sudo mount -t ext4

Then you could type: ls -l /media/storage and you'd expect to
see your recordings there.

If the above doesn't work, then do:

     sudo blkid
     cat /etc/fstab

and put the results at pastebin.com and the link to the
paste here (because it's so much easier for folks trying
to help if the output isn't full of folded lines.)
