My host came with a mongodb instance and there is no /db directory so now I am wondering what I can do to find out where the data is actually being stored.

mongoddefaults the database location to/data/db/.If you run
ps -xa | grep mongodand you don’t see a--dbpathwhich explicitly tellsmongodto look at that parameter for the db location and you don’t have adbpathin yourmongodb.conf, then the default location will be:/data/db/and you should look there.
