.pak files, can they be deleted?

I have all these other huge .pak files on my Imac for Sampletank, Modo Drums, etc, can they be nuked? As I understand they are archive files like RAR or ZIP, so Sampletank etc would not access them directly, only for installing the sounds. Correct?

NOOOOOOO !
Most of them are the files containing the audio samples (and there are some other .pak files too).
