    You should be fine, just make sure you have enough space total on the drive you want to move it to.

        Yes.

        I'd do a backup first. In place of D drive use your E drive.

        Then:
        1. Copy the entire iTunes folder from your music folder to D:\iTunes.
        2. Click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key. Keep holding until asked to choose or create a library.
        3. Click Choose and navigate to the file D:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
        4. Check the library is working properly.
        5. Use the option File > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate Files to import any stay files to the new library folder.
        6. Delete the old iTunes folder on the C: drive.
