I use to have all my music in E:\mp3 on my pc.

A few weeks ago, I bought a synology NAS, created an MP3 directory on it. I then went into itunes on my pc, and set it to consolidate/organize my mp3s to my NAS. This allowed itunes to create/organize directories on my NAS under MP3 for itunes. I formated my windows pc yesterday, reinstalled itunes, and now wondering how to load/recover all my mp3s back into itunes. I backed up my user/music/itunes directory to my nas also. Do I just copy back that folder to my c:/ ? Or do I have to go into itunes, and specify the location of itunes media folder location? Please help.

My user/music/itunes folder has a bunch of files in it, most seem like backup files with dates on it.
