That's my fear. Since I have 50,000+ folders on the local hard drive, it's going to take forever to move them all.
But, I did come across what appears to be a great solution.
atpalca/docker-rdp-calibre.

I've got a DS3615 with 11x8TB drives. (about 75TB). Problem is my local storage HD is only 1TB, and my library is already over 300GB. It's not the fastest drive (I use SSD for system drives), but I'm almost out of space. Since I'm about to import 2015 (about 100GB) into the library, I wanted to find a fix before I do that. (I estimate about 75,000-100,00 ebooks).

So far, apart from a weird permissions problem I'm having on docker-rdp-calibre (I can't seem to point calibre to the folder I want to use as a library, it keeps showing me 'nobody', and 'nobody' can't browse to the volume that has the directory I created to store all the books.

The storage array has plenty of CPU power (think it's like a dual core 3Ghz, and 16GB of ram AND a 500GB SSD 'cache' drive, so I always get 100MB/sec transferring to and from it)
