Hi there,
I just bought 3 114GB usb sticks and while attempting to transfer a 32GB video file onto it I am being told that the file is too big for the device. I am by no means Stephen Hawkins but even I know that 32 is less than 114 :slight_smile: Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Where did you buy them Freaky? They could be counterfeits, in which case return them to the seller.

If from a reliable source they should be formatted as exFAT and should hold a 32GB file no problem.

The FAT32 file system have a limitation that it doesn’t allow a single file larger than 4GB. To fix this, you can reformat the USB stick to a file system that supports larger files, such as exFAT or NTFS.
