    Error says too large to backup??


    HiI've done a backup to a USB stick the size of which is 256 GB, capacity 232 GBThe folder I've backed up is 52.8 GB. During the backup there was a popup saying a couple of files were too large to copy over.The 2 files are Outlook PST files and combined are 16 GB so there is plenty of space left on the USB disk but when I try to copy either of them over, I get a message saying "...too large for the destination system" which is ridiculous!Any ideas?

    :)
