    I've just got an external case for my SATA drive but I can't find its location on my OS, its not in 'Computer' where the rest of the drives are. Any ideas how I find it?

    cool same as me..
    Anyway Right click on 'My Computer' and left click 'Manage'
    when window opens (after UCA) goto Disk Management in left hand window
    you should see your drive listed and see if its Hidden or not.

    That should be your first step.

    Let me know how you get on.
