Wanting to move music files from external hard drive to an SSD drive

Hi there, 

I have all my music stored in my external hard drive. 

The playlists on rekordbox do not come up under the tab "playlists", but instead I have to go into "devices" and find my playlists through that. 

I was wondering that if I copy and paste those files from my external hard drive into my new SSD drive; will I lose all my playlists? Will rekordbox still recognise those playlists or will I have to reassemble them? Additionally, will I lose any tags or cues/adjustments I have made to the songs? 

Looking forward to hearing from you

Gabriel

Yes, you can copy the playlists and music files to other Device by copying CONTENTS and PIONEER folder.
But both Devices should be the same format.
 
PIONEER folder is hidden folder by default. you should show the hidden folders.
For Mac, you can show hidden folders with the shortcut "SHIFT + COMMAND + ."
For Windows, you can show hidden folders in the settings of Explorer.
 
If the Devices are formatted in MacOS Extended,  please copy .PIONEER folder instead PIONEER folder.
