That is what I originally suspected: that drive has been used on a Windows machine that is infected with malware. I'm not very familiar with Windows malware, but from what I understand, in some cases the original files are hidden elsewhere on the drive, while in other cases they have been encrypted (and thus destroyed).
If you're not sure how to look for invisible folders on that drive, there are ways to make the Finder show invisible files, but this can lead to trouble. Many things on your system are hidden for a good reason, and you should not be messing with them, so I don't necessarily advocate showing all invisible files. However, if the instructions below for browsing the contents of that drive in the Terminal are too difficult, you could try downloading a 30-day trial of Pathfinder, which will (among many other things) allow you to view hidden files:

If you use Pathfinder, be very cautious about messing with any hidden files or folders. Looking at them isn't a problem, but don't move, change or delete them.
To do this without downloading anything, open the Terminal app (found in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder) and enter the following command:
cd
Don't press return yet, and make sure there's a space at the end. Then drag the icon for that SABA hard drive onto the Terminal window, which will insert a path to that hard drive into the command. Now press return. Nothing should happen, because all you have done so far is change the current directory in the Terminal to that hard drive.
Next, enter the following command:
ls -al
(Either copy and paste that command, or if you re-type it, be aware that those are lowercase 'L's, not uppercase 'i's.)
This should list all the items that you would see in the Finder if you double-click the drive's icon, except that it will also show any files there that are invisible. Compare it to the listing in the Finder and look for differences. Be aware that items named ".", "..", ".DS_Store", ".Spotlight-V100", ".TemporaryItems" and ".Trashes" are normal. Also, you may see a number of files starting with "._" and with names otherwise the same as some of your files - those are also normal for a FAT32-formatted drive that is used on both Mac and Windows.
You're looking for a folder. You can tell folders from files by looking at the very first character on the line. For example:
-rw-r--r--@ 1 thomas staff 372994 May 17 06:37 a file
drwxr-xr-x@ 3 thomas staff 102 Sep 26 2014 a folder
If the first character is a '-', the item is a file. If it's a 'd', it's a folder.
If you spot a folder that doesn't seem to belong, you can inspect its contents in the Finder with the "open" command. So let's say you see a folder named "hidden stuff" that doesn't appear when looking at the drive in the Finder. Enter the following in the Terminal:
open "hidden stuff"
This should open a window in the Finder showing the contents of those files.
