Comment (by ryandesign@…):
Looking into this a little further, it looks like /data/db is the default
directory where mongod looks for databases, if not told otherwise. You
just ran "mongod" without any arguments, so it used the default database
directory /data/db.
In MacPorts, you're not intended to run "mongod" manually. Instead, you're
intended to use "sudo port load mongod" which will launch mongod with a
number of arguments, one of which specifies that databases should go in
/opt/local/var/db/mongodb. The port has already created this directory for
you with the correct ownership.
