Hey!
When you drag files from one HD to another, the default action is "copy", not "move". Try dragging the files with the RIGHT click mouse, and then when you release it, it displays a small menu(copy here, move here or make shortcut here).You'll notice that the default action is displayed in bold.
I hope it helps!

Hold SHIFT when dragging and the files will be moved instead.
