USB Devices will often be not found by this script, Debian Linux should find this as an USB Mass Storrage device.
If you want to mount your external hard drive to a directory I did prefer for you to follow a manual way to mount it. Since external drives are beeing put on and of only when need for some specified backups or data. I did not recommend to put it in your mount folder.
In case you want to do it you seem to have to do it manually:

This guide should be okay for doing it.
