You are better off moving the \Catalogs folder.

From Tools\Options\Catalog speficy the new location
Shut down all BackupExec services
move the entire \catalogs folder to the new location
restart the services

Hello,
as Ken has suggested, we do not support and recommend moving DATA to a different Drive. You can however move the Catalogs to a different drive. Please check the following Document for that:
How to move the catalogs in Backup Exec 9.x and 10.0 for Windows Servers to a different drive
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/264680.htm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
A second Option could be uninstalling the Product and reinstalling it on a different drive.
Please go through the follwing Document for the same:
How to uninstall and reinstall Backup Exec 9.x, or move Backup Exec 9.x to a different computer, without losing job configuration information
