Six of one, half-dozen of the other. GUI, or PowerShell - your choice. You move 
the files or Exchange does - your choice.

If you've never done it in the lab - I might recommend you use the GUI for it.

Subject: Exchange 2010 Database Rename and Log File Move

Hello:

We have just installed Exchange 2010 Enterprise on Windows Server 2008 R2 
Enterprise 64bit. It appears that the database created on the mailbox server is 
given some sort of unique name by Exchange. I would like to rename the database 
and keep it on the current drive. In addition, I would like to move the log 
files to a different drive. What is the best way to do this? Thanks for your 
help in advance!
