Importing album files

I have about 2300 CDs already ripped to FLAC with the songs numbered and art organized into album files on my hard drive.  Do I just select all the files and drag them across my network to the "rips" folder in the Bluesound Vault's internal drive (like I would copy any file), or is there a specific way to import these?  Thanks.

  Hello Sanford,
  
  To transfer music to your Vault, you can simply drag and drop the files from your computer to the Music folder of the Vault. Do not transfer your content to the Rips folder as it is temporary storage used in the ripping process and will not store your music content.

  After you have transferred your music to the Vault's storage, you will need to let the BluOS app know changes have been made to have this content appear in the BluOS library. To do this you will need to perform a reindex by going to Settings > Music Library > Reindex Music Collection. Once the index is complete, you should then see all your newly added content in your BluOS library.

  Regards,

  Thanks Wesley!

  Should I drag and drop the files to the "Music" folder, create a new folder, or just drop them in no folder in the Vault?

  Cheers
