Moving files in the same partition path will result in a copy file operation

See original GitHub issue

When moving files under the same partition path, I observed that there is no direct move, which produces a copy-like operation, not as fast as executing the execute mv command. This can be very annoying when moving large files. This problem occurs when files are moved from the /volume2/Files path to /volume2/Files1 image

This is how Synology Technical Support responded to me.

Sorry, low-level commands are not supported by Synology nas, and we do not recommend you to do such operations on the low level, if you just want to move files, it is recommended to do it in the file station’s ui, or you can use the shell’s cp command if you must do it on the low level. It is important to note that modifications to the base layer are a very dangerous operation, and if the modifications are too large, we will not be able to provide effective technical support and will only be able to reinstall the dsm system to restore normal use.

Looks like it’s related to Synology, and this is the place that should be fixed 🤷
