Leopard (10.5) Users be aware of the “move file” issue

There is a serious bug with the “move file” operation on 10.5;

“if for whatever reason your target disk gets disconnected during a file move — a USB or Firewire cable is yanked, power failure, or a network interruption for a remote server volume — you’re likely to have problems with your moved files. In particular, whichever file was in progress when the connection dropped may disappear from both the source and target folders, never to be seen again.”
