I had already uploaded about 200 gb of client's files to their external 1TB drive. One file was gave the following message "too large for the destination file system"
Too bad, I had already uploaded all the over 90 files and this just one file was giving me hard time!.
I researched and found out that I had to tweak the drive. However, I was going to lose all the data on file!
I backed up the files and this is how to format
1. File system change to NTFS
2. Allocation to default
and let it format.
I hope this helps!
