A feature that isn’t there anymore in Leopard: ability to see every mapped network drives and physical drives within Finder.
- Open Finder
- Right click on your hard drive and select “Open Enclosing Folder”
You can drag the icon of the opened folder into Finder to make its access permanent.

you can also open finder type command+shift+g or in the menubar Go > Go to Folder and then look for ‘volumes’ this map you can drag into your dock I tried this trick but when I do this I just come outh at the ‘Computer’ map which you can’t drag into your dock

I don’t understand the problem - this is right there in the finder preferences on the first tab, ‘General’, you can select ‘New Finder Windows open:’ and then select Computer (this is my setting) or if you want computer to appear in the sidebar, click on the sidebar tab, and then check the computer box.
One caveat, this ‘may’ be occurring on my computer, since as much as ‘Shared’ is potentially useful, like the network browser of old, I still find it quite flakey. So, I mount the disks using command-k, and then drag an alias of the disk into a folder for quick launching

ops did read it to fast although I like my tip more, and as wakayama said, just use the finder preferences …

put your computer icon back in the sidebar permanantly by going to finder’s preferences, then in the sidebar tab, reticking ‘computer’.
