ETA: Oh, wait, I just read the FAQ more carefully. I see I'll need to re-download.

Am I correct in believing that if I use the "Replace" option described in the FAQ, the thousands of files in the base directory will actually be moved to their new locations (as opposed to deleted and re-downloaded)?

If I change the template in CC as described, what will happen to the thousands of books currently in the library? I'm guessing that CC won't reorganize them automatically, right?

If it won't, can I force a reorganization by having CC move the files to a new directory?

Or, if I pop the SD card into my computer and rearrange manually, will CC find them in the new locations?

Or am I just going to have to bite the bullet, wipe the directory, and redownload the entire collection?
