Just did this last night when I finished some Audiobook Builder
projects, 10 gigs worth. Took about 5 minutes to copy to the
Automatically Add folder then opened iTunes and it was done.
I agree that breaking the 1 tb into smaller pieces is better. The
Mac may need some tine outs to cool down.

I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

Hi,
What process are you using to import the AudioBooks? I just tested mine for fun, by
importing 18 GB of AudioBooks, about 180 titles. The copying from the Desktop into the
"Automatically Add to iTunes" folder took about 10 minutes or so, but other
than that, iTunes did not cough or burp at all. FyI, iTunes was not open at the time of
the copy. Things like Apple Music or iTunes Match which use the iCloud Music Library may
cause things to lag a little, but shouldn't be show stoppers.
Simon, if possible, you may wish to divide that 1 TB up a little. Maybe into 2
or 300 GB segments and see what happens. It sounds to me like the
re-organization and database writing may be taxing your system.
Later...

Hi Geoff,
Yeah it will.
I've got a terabyte of audio content, books and music,
I've tried multiple times to import both my audio books and music into itunes
and things stop for days,
I can't see how a newer mac book will speed this up as it's still got a
truckload of data to sort out
I'd love to be wrong but I've just tried on a 2012 mac mini with 2.6 quad core
i7 processor and 16 GB ram with 1tb fusion drive and that stopped for 2 days
before I killed it due to the delay and I'm running it on a 1GB wired network

Hi there, I have a Mid 2015 with the full Terabyte of storage (SSD) and the 2.8
I7 quad core and it’s lightning fast. Virtual machines, disk access, moving
data around the network, everything you would want it’s blazing fast. The
wireless is also quite good.
Smaller disk drives may be slower depending on how these are designed but for
my configuration at least things are very very fast.

Hi I have a 2012 mbp with an ssd. I also have a very large audio book
library. When adding to iTunes iTunes goes into a caniption fit and
says busy for hours. So here's my question, with the 2016 mbp's having
faster cpu's and ssd's does this still happen when importing a big
folder of media into iTunes?
Thanks Jeff
Sorry for the long post!
