    you must be on fat32

    convert your drive to ntfs and all will be well again.

    Check the properties of the hard drive you're saving to .
    What is the "Filesystem" listed as?
    FAT32 supports only files < 4GB. Format in NTFS to save files bigger than 4GB.

    Even if I was another cilent like Azuerus...will I still get this error? I am trying to save this file onto a 8 gigs flash drive. I think the flash drive is "FAT"! Will I still be able to format the flash drive and convert it to NTFS. I have a 8 gigs micro flash drive that is in *FAT* format..can I still convert a flash drive to NTFS?

    yes

    it has nothing to do with the client, its the file.

    if you have a file over 4 gig then fat32 cant handle it at all.

    Why do people insist on using fat?
    I formatted my flashy as soon as I got it. Hell, its 8gb, why use fat?

    Maybe some of us actually have limited storage space and don't want the files to take twice the space. I love scene/non scene unrared uploads.
    I'm back. The downside is that I'm also old now.

    How did you draw the conclusion that rar-ing files compresses them to half their size?!
    Zipping files doesn't give you even close to that percentage of saved space. I had the impression the scene rar-ed data for easier transportation, to reduce data corrupted, or to maintain a standard.
