In iTunes, FILE > ADD FOLDER TO LIBRARY
Hopefully you can select the entire collection in one go.:think: Can anyone explain to me how to put a signature here? :think:

... but before you do that just check inside File > Preferences. There's an option somewhere in there, I can't remember where, for Importing, called 'Copy to iTunes Music Folder' - make sure this is checked, otherwise it'll just add it to the list and point to the external drive...0
