Go to My Files --> Internal Storage. Copy the files you want to copy to your SD card. It will give you another screen to select the destination folder you want to paste into. Just tap SD Card --> Any folder you want and tap 'Paste Here'

Go to My Files --> Internal Storage.

This is no longer an option, on Android 6.0

An SD card formatted as Internal Storage will be the only (mounted) location which shows up in File Manager.

Storage & USB will have the locations available, however (new) software installation will happen automagically and only SOME apps can be moved from one to the other (Internal and SD card).

'Twas, somewhat, confusing the first time around, btw.

P.S.
Posting external images as I'm unable to see the interface, here, on mobile! 🙁
