My understanding of the point about backups (perhaps incorrect) was that the OP is doing incremental backups and changing the folder location of a large number of audio files would cause all these files to be written to the backup even though they have not changed.

No I have 2 drives in the PC , and 2 X 2 x USB External drives as BU.

I use SyncBack pro which copies only files that have changed.

If I change the second drive to H:\MusicLibrary2 so its not identical to F:\MusicLibrary , I will just need to rename the folders on the BU drives and change the destination/source in the sync definition before I next backup. Not a big issue. I would obviously prefer not to start recopying 4Tb (x2) of files just for a name change,, but that wouldn't be the case.

I just thought it odd that the path and not just the Folder Name would need to be unique

Thanks , I will do that.
