How do you preserve iTunes playlist?

[MacMission]

I consolidated all my music onto one external firewire drive. If I want to preserve my playlists , what's the next step?

I think you need to back up the 2 files in your iTunes folder. That should be where the play count, playlist, etc info is stored.

If you've put a lot of time and effort into creating your playlists, make a backup of them.

Highlight the playlist, then:

File --> Export Song List

Put it somewhere safe.

So, my question is if I drag and drop onto the iTunes window the new folder location will the playlist links work automatically? Is there an easy way to do this?
