Why does it say "The drive is not connected, so there is nothing to move to"?
Short answer: Storage Studio can't see your fast drive, so the move has nowhere to go and nothing changed. Plug the drive in, wait for it to appear in Finder, confirm it's the drive chosen in setup, then try again.
Storage Studio can't see your fast drive right now, so a move has nowhere to go. Nothing was changed.
What to do:
- Plug the drive in and wait a few seconds for it to appear in Finder.
- If it's connected but still not recognised, check it's the drive you chose in setup — open Choose Drive (or the Drive selector) to confirm or pick it again.
- Try the move again.
