depends what your document and setting folder contains.
If it contains users directories then you will have to put a bit of work moving them to D drive and then pointing to the new locations - You can do it via a script but this is a new subject.
If the problem is that all your users are saving their Doco and personal information to this drive you can assign an H drive (As a home drive) to the users so their "My Document" folder will sit on the D drive - You can do it via the user account in AD users and computers.
If I am completely off track then you will need to give me a bit more info.
I am not sure if you can drag and drop the folder but not 100% sure of it.
Hope it helps
