Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

Jul 10, 2012 10:32 AM in response to shannonlg37by turingtest2,I recommend you try to copy the library with the tool in this user tip. If there are any unreadable files it should be able to carry on copying others whereas Windows Explorer will bail out.
