Hi Guys, I'm going from and external hard drive to a internal for all my music. Just wondering do I have to do anything with vdj to direct to see the drive or will it find the music automatically? All im doing is copying the entire drive to my internal drive. Appreciate the help.

Two choices.. .
1) If you have played a lot of the music on External drive over long time and want to keep the data (play count, cue markers etc)

To add these folders, simply locate them on drive from within VirtualDJ browser, then right-click and choose "batch=> add to search database" or vist (open) the folder and its added automatically.
You can also opt to bookmark (favorite) the new local drive folder(s) so you can quickly acesess them without having to open "Local Drives", and browse through to find ...
