I don't get why you need Grub for that, as Grub is the boot-up-manager.
Anyhow i can provide some help on how to mount a hard drive. You should
do in a console:


Code:
--------------------
    sudo gedit /etc/fstab
--------------------




then add a line with your disk mount-info, it should like that:
Code:
--------------------
    /dev/sda4       /winux          vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
--------------------
 this is the 4rth partition of the first drive (so /dev/sda4) should be
mounted at /winux it is a virtual fat format drive and the rest is the
permissions of it to others. You should change the above according to
your needs.



Then save the file and again in a terminal 
Code:
--------------------
    mount -a
--------------------




you disk should be mounted at your deired destination.
