Keep watch history when changing drives?

[msterwayne]

Hi! Pretty much the title. My media collection has expanded and I recently bought two new, larger hard drives. When I copy my movie collection and TV collection to the new drives will I lose my watch history/Up Next/etc? Because when I tell Jellyfin where the media files are now located, it's gonna rescan them all as new right? Thanks in advance for any tips and suggestions!
