Righty ho then,

Plug both in... then swap the Drive Letters by doing this:

How to change a drive letter
To change an existing drive letter on a drive, on a partition, or on a volume, follow these steps:
1. Log on as Administrator or as a member of the Administrators group.
2. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Performance and Maintenance.
3. Click Administrative Tools, double-click Computer Management, and then click Disk Management in the left pane.
4. Right-click the drive, the partition, the logical drive, or the volume that you want to assign a drive letter to, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths.
5. Click Change.
6. Click Assign the following drive letter if it is not already selected, click the drive letter that you want to use, and then click OK.
7. Click Yes when you are prompted to confirm the drive letter change.
The drive letter of the drive, the partition, or the volume that you specified is changed, and the new drive letter appears in the appropriate drive, partition, or volume in the Disk Management tool.

Basically i've got an external hard drive with all my music on it, i bought a new pen drive and it has replaced the directory of what the external hd used to be.

The problem is that i use iTunes and it is now saying it cannot locate the files because it has switched directories. The directory of the external hard drive used to be ( I: ) but it is now ( J: )

I would really appreciate some help on how to fix this as I dont want to have to re-locate all of my music as there is about 30gb's worth! :(

Greg.
