How do I check whether a move actually finished?
Short answer: A finished move reports Move complete (or Move failed with a reason), based on checking the disk. You can also see it in What's Using Space's Relocated panel, Data Parking's Moves log, or More → Job Insights.
Look at the result Storage Studio reports, which comes from checking the disk rather than assuming. A finished move says so — for example "Moved … to your fast drive" — and its progress sheet ends on Move complete or Move failed with a reason.
Other places to check:
- What's Using Space → Relocated lists every folder currently moved.
- Data Parking's Moves log shows each move's status: failed, waiting, in progress or done.
- More → Job Insights shows the latest runs of background moves.
