Is Sarang a complete idiot?

Isn't there something called file transfer? Which changes the location of the data without actually deleting anything?

Yes, when cutting and pasting files on the same physical medium, it will just change the headers so the new location points to the files instead of the old one. Which is why cut and paste on the same drive seems to go so fast.

However, it doesn't work from one medium to another, like between two different physical hard drives or, say, a brain to a futuristic drive.
