Understanding the file structure of a linux based file system can be a little tricky at first. There are some easy things to remember that can help:
1) Every SD card that is mounted (available for use) can be found under /mnt. In the MobileSheets file browser, you can tap that slash at the top left to return to the top level root directory, which shows up as either a forward slash or "Root".
2) Once you are at "/" or "Root", then tap on "mnt" and look for something like "extSdCard". This is the path used by many tablet manufacturers, but it can vary per device. On my ASUS Transformer, it used /Removable as the location for the external SD card.
3) Many paths actually point to the same location, which can be confusing. For example, /sdcard is actually the same thing as /mnt/sdcard0, /storage/emulated/0 and /storage/sdcard0.
Let me know if you still have difficulties locating the external SD card.
