You'll have to tell iTunes where the songs are... it was a pain in the ass for me when I moved my music, don't know how easy it is now with version 8.

Yes, you can do that. Make sure to check itunes preferences/options and also change the path to where your music is now located.

Er SkyR beat me.

1. move the music.

2. get itune to recognize your music files in their new location.

3. once you are sure that itune has recognized all your files at the new location, then delete your old files from c drive
