Copying Music to Hard Drive

I have copied all of my music to the hard drive yet I want to add more music to my flash drive and then recopy the new music to the hard drive.

Question:

1. Will the entire flash drive by copied again or is the software smart enough to only copy the new music on the flash drive.

2. If it copies the entire flash drive all over again, is it going to make two copies or write over all of the existing music.

3. Or do I need to delete all of the existing music on the hard drive and recopy the flash drive with all of my music including the new music.

Thanks

1. The entire flash drive will get copied into a new "playlist" on the car.

2. It creates a new copy and give the list a new name.

3. You can then delete the old "playlist" that you previously copied.

It's probably better to just remove the old music and copy from the USB stick from scratch. If the HDD was almost full, you make not have room for both copies at the same time.
