for time being, you wanna keep it all together, then split into playlists and export them from traktor onto the flash drives. this will copy the tracks and create a [playlist].nml file for that group

if not you'll have several of the collection.nml files that will complain about missing tracks.

@ discothan: would it maybe be wise to have different flash drive for different genres etc.. ideally id like a ssd but theyre not exactly in my budget lol.

oh completely! This is a great idea.

Just remember that even flash drives can break down.

If your source of income depends on having your music library backed up so you can rebuild your sets, you should consider some sort of online backup service.

Burning your data to CD/DVD/BLURAY is nice, but don't use this medium to DJ from. Copy those files back to your working HD.
