Changing Document and Folder Volumes
A volume represents the physical hard drive location where images, text, and electronic files for a particular document are stored. Although folders are not stored in volumes, you can also set a volume on a folder; that volume will serve as the default volume for documents created in that folder. (See Options: New Documents: General for more information on default volumes.)
You can also assign a document to a particular volume, or to its parent folder's volume, during document creation or import. See Import and New Document Dialog Box for more information.
Note: A migration in progress can be stopped by clicking Cancel under the progress bar. Entries migrated before the cancellation will remain in the new volume location.
