In the future, use COPY to copy the files to a new destination. After
copying, verify the integrity of the pictures at the destination. Once you
have verified that the pictures have copied successfully, then delete them
from the source. Using Copy and Paste is dangerous at best. If there is a
power surge or brown-out during the transfer, then the files will be lost.
Cut removes the files from the source and puts them in temporary memory,
either physical memory or swap file, and then writes them to the
destination. Any incident that interrupts this process will result in the
loss of the files, as they are in "volatile" memory.
