    Unable to transfer large files to usb drive


    Why does it say "file is too large for destination" when the destination has more than enough space, and how to fix it? The format is already showing ntfs.

    USB Drive 64gb can't transfer a 10gb file.

    Hi,

    Please answer the questions mentioned below in order to assist you in a better way.

    • Did you try transferring the same file to another USB drive and check if the error persists?
    • Did you try to transfer another file of the same size to the USB drive?
    FAT32 file system does not support that large size of file transfer. As you rightly mentioned you have to convert the file system to NTFS for such huge file transfers to take place.

    Thank you.

    Cable to transfer files

    OMG. I have never met anyone who actually bought one of those file transfer things.



    Firewire will do the same as USB, but faster, so will a cheap crossover cable. I can wlak you through the steps of moving data so you will not miss a beat.




    Anything more than $10 to buy a cable is too much.
