Mellophi2566yThat was actually asked in my interview and the correct answer is cut past.
Reason:
Cut past moves the file... i.e. there is no new file creation involved in the buffer and as a result it is faster.
The faster the better so cut past better ((well ofc if you don't want to keep a copy)) -
@GodlikeBlock Man, I use y instead of d most of the time cause I feel like I'll break something if I delete it first

C0D4681976yIf the file is moving on the same drive, cut + paste
If the file is headed over a network, copy + paste + delete
If something goes wrong during the transfer of the file when it’s been cut, it’s going to be corrupt at the other end (if it makes it) and you won’t have the original to try again.
