Greetings to everyone!

I'm a relatively new user of Calibre. I want to use it as my ebook management tool to manage my library. My ebooks are scattered across several external storage (hard disks). When I try to add a book to Calibre, it usually copies a book to it's default library location. This will essentially double my copies of the book and it's a waste of space. How can I configure it that it will just "point" my book to specific location (external storage disk) and only the metadata is stored in the default Calibre library?

My Calibre library is installed on my PC.

TIA for your help!
