recognizes a new drive and it searches for new folders and music files which
are then copied into C:\Music.

are no music directories on the drive, the Jukebox software creates them
automatically and therefore prepares it for music upload.

folder --> E:\Music\Croatian\Colonia\Sexy
body.mp3

the USB Flash Drive while the JUKEBOX software is running. The contents of the
USB Flash Drive will be automatically copied to the hard drive
