Delete old Logic samples after relocating sound library?

After I relocate the Logic X 10.5 sound library to another drive, how do I safely remove the old (original) sample files to make more room on my primary drive?

Mac mini, macOS 10.14

Do you need to relocate MAContent files when you move the Logic Sound Library to an external drive? I'm in the process of moving my files to an external 4TB drive. I can see how easy it is to move the Sound Library HOWEVER, I came across this video that suggests there is another step that involves moving MAContent Systems files in order to prevent the problem of Logic trying to reinstall the library each time. This is the short video (2 1/2 min) - is this really necessary, or will all work fine just by doing the move from Logic's menu? Thanks. https://youtu.be/iuMe6G4oqD4

moving logic pro sounds to an external drive Hi all, I recently installed a symlink program to I can transfer logic sounds to an external drive. There was not enough room on my internal hard drive to download all the sound libraries at once, so I downloaded the essential sounds, moved them to my external drive, created the symlink, and deleted them from my internal drive. So far so good. Then I downloaded all the other sound libraries in Logic. They appear to be showing up on both drives right now. Can I just delete them from my internal drive? thanks!

If you used the Relocate Sound Library command, this is done automatically. What is your issue exactly?
