Hi!
It is the same behavior as in the Windows Explorer or the Finder in Mac OS:
Source and target within the same drive / disk: files are moved.
Source and target are on different drives / disks: files are copied.

I avoid using drag & drop as much as I can and use instead the keyboard shortcuts. This also add a step where you can verify the destination.

For Copying while i do CTRL+Y, after that a copy option screen appear, so its difficult for me to always select destination and copy 100's of photos  in various folder everyday. so Drag and Drop would be better to work , or else like we do in window explorer CTRL+C and CTRL + V.

There is no copy/paste option for items in the contact sheet that results in files being copied.
