Can't copy image file with larg size in flash memory


I want copy image file with large size(4G) to flash memory in Windows XP os and capacity of flash memory is 8G and free, but windows shows error dialog : "The disk in the destination drive is full".


Solution

  • The FAT32 file system supports drives larger than 4GB, but individual files cannot be larger than 4GB-1 (4294967295) bytes. If you must store such large files you will need to use a different file system. The most commonly used file system which supports such large files is NTFS.
