When they were deleted from the song database, the actual files (kma or zip)- were they deleted as well? Or just the pointer? Or the pointer and the kmh file? I don't want to rebuild the database and drag all the old ones in that I have removed.
Since I have kma files in a folder, then sub-folders with zips and kmh files, can I move all the above into one folder and rebuild the database after the move?

As long as you used the Edit Songs utility to remove them from the database then yes the files were deleted too.
Don't forget to uninstall Hoster and any other MTU program you have before you change out the drive.
