  • Why won’t video files fit on Jump Drive?

    Posted by Don Smith on October 17, 2014 at 2:35 pm

    I have 34 .mts files totaling just over 9 gigs that I want to send to someone. I got a 16 gn Lexar JumpDrive but when trying to transfer files it says the file is too large. The jump drive clearly shows 14.9 GB free space, but when I dry to drag in a 7.6 GB file it says the file is too large for the destination file system.

    I need to send these out today and don’t now how to do it now. Too large for DVD-R. Any ideas?

    I always do this….post question before really thinking things out. A big duh! It was formatted as FAT 32 and I just needed to reformat to NTFS. Problem solved.

    You can also use ExFAT format as well. That can be read and written to on both PC and Mac, on Windows 7 and higher…
