Kinda sounds weird, I know, but here's the deal:

I'd like to clone my 134G iTunes Music Folder, currently residing on my internal drive, across two different external 120G drives. Why, you might ask? Because i need another backup, and I happen to have these two drives available.

There are 745 subfolders (mostly individual artists) in that iTunes Music folder. Is there a quick and easy one-or-two-click way in Carbon Copy Cloner whereby I might select half of these subfolders, for an incremental backup, or am I doomed to check each individual box?

I am forever hopeful.

Thanks.

This feels like the set up for a "when all you have is a hammer..." joke.

I think I'll put aside the CCC hammer and just do an old fashioned drag/drop. I can probably remember when I add new music to iTunes! It's really not too complicated, is it? I don't need no stinkin' hammer! Thanks for bringing me back to a simpler reality.
