I moved a database from one server to another. After doing so, someone told
me that the data files need to be moved to a secondary disk. I'm needing to
know how to change SQL Server so that all of it's database files are located
somewhere besides the default location. How do I do this?
I went through the BOL, so don't tell me to look it up there. Couldn't find
this information. If you do refer to the BOL, please give me the steps to
find that information. I tried the index and that didn't work.

The easiest way is to detach the db, move the files and attach it again.
