In the SVmotion GUI click the Advanced button in the "Select Datastore" step. There you can specify the target datastores for the virtual disks.

Yes you can - I am guessing you are trying to merge the Storage to one disk - but if  not, just follow the wizard a little more carefully - make sure you specify all correct paths.

Good luck.

One day I will virtualise myself . . .

Yes... by default all VM related files goes on the destation datastore.

To have different datastores, you can use advanced options.
