Windows SBS 2008 has some built in tools for moving data from one drive to another without you having to do much work.

You can find these tasks in the Windows SBS Console under the Backup and Server Storage tab at the top. Then click the tab below that says server storage. On the right you will see that different tasks you can perform to move data to another drive.---Very nice and easy.

As for the logfiles from IIS. I have seen this on my system as well. I ended up disabling logging for the IIS since I never have problems anyway. I'll renable them one day if I need to troubleshoot an issue, but in the meantime why bother taking up my space.

Check out this blog post as it relates to your logfiles
