I just bought a 4tb external hd (2x2) to keep itunes on (movies, tv, music). When I play music there is a huge lag to start playing songs and when you hit next. I never had this problem until I had about 1tb of media. I bought the drive so i could keep all my media on one drive.

I have "keep itunes media folder organized" on and "copy files to itunes media folder when adding to library". Is there a way to transfer my music folder to my internal computer hd and keep that organized?

What I don't want is to have to organize my media myself that's why i like keep it organized as an option, and when i add music to my internal drive it seems like I will have to. Also, when you uncheck copy to library option and add something, then check it again, will what you added before be copied or is it only after?

Anybody else with huge iTunes libraries have this problem? Thanks
