I downloaded the free Smartloops pack (nice).
They are a bunch of wav files for building drum trax as I assume you know but I have not done yet.
I unzipped them but am not sure what folder to put them into?
If I open (some drum plug or other), will they automatically show up?
I have had some frustration with the browser, perhaps due to my putting files in the wrong places.

Go to your browser within Sonar (press B on the keyboard) and use the drop down box to choose Sample Content...I believe that is where they are by default...I could be wrong, though...maybe someone can buddy check me on that...

If you want, you can just leave them in their own folder and save that location as a preset in the browser. Put the folder where ever you want it, then in the browser, navigate to that folder using the "up one level" button, etc. Once you're in the folder, double-click on the browser's location drop-down selector, type in a name and click the save icon. Now that folder location will show up in the location drop-down list.

Mr. StepD's idea is even better...

Cool thanks, I'll give that a try.
I wondered if Sonar already had a place that it kept all those kinds of drum files?
