Do you not know how to use the linux/unix cp command?
Code:
$ man cp

The data center may have just installed the HDD and nothing more, so the drive most likely needs to be mounted.

@seachen: If your host did not mount the drive, you would need to feel comfortable making a new directory, editing fstab, and mounting the file system. I'd really recommend that you hire someone to take care of this for you if it has not been done already.
