That makes sense, thanks!

I suggest investigating that as a future improvement. Not only is 
moving files within the same volume much faster (potentially an 
O(1) operation as opposed to having to read then write every byte 
of data), but it can also result in space savings (in the case of 
filesystem snapshots).
