RE: Copy/Paste takes longer than Cut/Paste, why?
within the same drive, cut/paste will simply change the directory mapping, and copy/paste will clone the file and create a new directory mapping.
across multiple drives, cut/paste will copy then delete, whereas copy/paste will just copy.
therefore, cut/paste is (a lot) faster on the same drive, and copy/paste is (marginally) faster across drives.
