That was certainly my hope, but from the responses I've got in this thread it appears to not be the case.

boykster:
If a roundtrip of the data for a copy command is true, then that's truly messed up design and implementation on Buffalo's part. 

 :dunno

shmokes:
What's worse, I'm not trying to do a copy command.  I'm trying to do a move command.  There's no reason for the physical location of the data on the platters to move at all.

boykster:
yeah, I meant move not copy....

It looks like the terastations run some flavor of linux and samba, so its a bit wierd that the move command is forcing a round trip of the data.  I use built linux boxes for my NAS storage running samba, and a "move" operation stays local to the linux box, even when initiated thru windows explorer from a client machine.  Works fine.
