Migrating log files - should I copy file/directory permissions?
If you don't move the permissions too the service account under which SQL Server is running may not be able to access them. 

You can use Robocopy to do this quite easily. I tend to use the following.

ROBOCOPY &lt;source&gt; &lt;target&gt; /MIR /SEC /SECFIX
