If you are using Raspbian, and starting up as a GUI desktop, inserting the USB cable will auto-detect the drive and mount it. It will not mount if your power supply is not providing it with enough power.

* Are you using Raspbian, the GUI desktop and an external power supply for the drive?
* Which Pi model do you have?
* What is the make / model of the drive?

If you are using a terminal window, what commands are you using to try to mount it?
