Free Reggae and percussion loops?

Does anyone have a link to decent free Reggae and percussion loops?
I'd probably use them as inspiration trax or srt of a metronome to get the juices going on a song I've written.
Then I assume I'd need to make proper trax from SD3 or other.
The last free download I tried, installed a bunch of adware and then crashed my adblock.

    not sure if there's  reggae on it, but scroll backwards through 132 pages of free downloads, lots of stuff.

    Thanks guys. I'll check these out.
    I need to settle down to some system of getting drums in. There are so many options and I feel I have to try 
    'em all before commitment to one. 
    This philosophy didn't work with women so I don't know why I think it should with music.

    I'll grab wav files from my 'free samples library' & just drag them onto the Session Drummer kit
    Handy lay down part with step sequencer & midi in(line) piano roll view, using both same time.
    From vst's inside Sonar you can build nice drumkits also, I think (Dimensions, Beatscape, Dropzone).

    Wouter, thanks, I'll have to try this. I need to go over some of the SD videos again. I'm missing something there.
