The archive device is not in the underground vault, but on the plateau above it! Same is true for the Quests A Trial of Valor and The Shattered Watcher.
The following quest, A Trial of Might, is in the vault, though.

The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
This quest was very confusing to me. There's actually two consoles you have to activate. The first one is in the middle of the plateau. An add and some NPCs will spawn. The second console is farther up on a hill on the right side.
Hope this helps.
Note, this quest will not show up unless you've completed the Stormheim storyline for your faction. It starts in your faction city.

What to do
Description
Upon the highest point of the plateau above, you will find the archive device for the Trial of Will. Seek it out to learn what awaits you in Thorim's Peak. Be on your guard, outsider. The one called Skovald has left behind many of his army, and they will no doubt be unfriendly.

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Trial of Valor
To seek the Aegis of Aggramar, a champion must complete three great trials before riding into glorious battle through the Gates of Valor. Here you will find the knowledge of the trials you must seek out, as well as the first challenge you must face.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Shattered Watcher
When your adversary - the one called Skovald- completed his first trial, he used his ill-begotten powers to sunder my physical body. I cannot allow a contender to pass through the vault while I remain unwhole.
