    Edit > Preferences > Advanced.

    Change the Media Folder location and uncheck the box to copy when importing.

    If you're on a mac -

    Go into itunes, preferences, and go to the advanced tab. Then uncheck the 'copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library'.

    On a PC it should be something similar - edit -> preferences -> advanced.
