Hello!
So just a few questions s.dich: :-)
- What kind of operating system you have?
- If XP: Do you have SP 2 on it?
- In what format the hard drive was formatted (FAT32 or NTFS)?
If the hard drive is FAT32 then I think there can be problems with large files. Where the limit is now, I do not know exactly. But know for certain someone else here!
Greeting

Answer by flo 1:
exactly. if you've formatted the hard drive with fat32 and Copying over files over 4 Gbytes want, then you'll get the error message that the disk is full.
