what is the larges size single file this drive can hold

For NTFS the max file size for that drive would be the capacity of the drive. For FAT32 it would be limited to 4Gb file size. It comes formatted in FAT32.

Thanks, I'll look into how that is done. Also, can a flashdrive handle a program this large or only just files?

According to the box the max is 1TB drive. I have 500gb drives in the 2 I got the drives are a tight fit

Yes, but you will not gain the benefits of the larger drive. The size available used by the computer it is placed in is only going to be the size you are copying.

Don't own this particular disk, but the support for large files is unrelated with the disk itself. It is a limitation of the file system used on it, so if you format the drive as FAT, then it will have an upper limit on file sizes of 4gb. There are other file systems which support bigger files, such as NTFS (or HFS+ in case you're using a Mac). But do notice that FAT is still the most widely supported format, so some devices might have issue reading from a NTFS disk.

It should not matter what is on the drive. It will copy what is there. Keep in mind you need to copy to a drive of the same size or larger but larger you lose the extra space.

A single FAT32 file is limited to 4GB in size, but you can format a 16GB (or larger) drive to FAT32 with no problems when used with individual files smaller than 4GB (each) in size. If you are needing to use individual files larger than 4GB then you should format the drive using NTFS or exFAT (with Win 7 or 8).

this has less to do with the fs type, and more with the type of data you expect to store on it. Unless you are planning on storing a whole lot of tiny files, your best bet it to follow the defaults. exFat was developed by MS, so their default spec is your best choice. According to this page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/140365 the default for a 32gb disk is 128kb. If you think you might be storing lots of files smaller than 128kb, then you might want to go for 32kb.

It is about 5 3/16" long by 3 3/8" wide by 1/2" thick. It is about as small as you could make it and still get 2.5" drive inside.

Actually it depends on which filesystem you use. The USB stick came formatted in the FAT32 file system which, from what I can tell from online searching, is limited to individual files of 4 GB in size. If you format it to NTFS is should be able to hold much larger files, but not all devices may be able to read the stick.

This been formated in FAT32, so 4gb is a maximum to transfer for 1 file. But you can still change its type to NTFS then everything will be OK.

I'm not sure of the largest size drive. I have a 2TB drive in it. I'm only using USB 2.0 and it's very, very ssssslow. I would not buy it unless you have USB 3.0 capability.

Hard drives are usually 3.5 inches in width. Almost all conform to a industry standard SFF-8301 3.5

The Windows8_OS drive, or C:\ has 957,248,172,032 bytes or 891 GB and LENOVO, Local Disk or D:\ has 26,843,541,504 bytes or 24.9 giggle bites, so that's 915.9 GB total! And you can make more partitions. ... Is that what you meant?

Depends on how it's formatted. FAT, FAT32, exFAT or NTFS. While the earlier three support older systems they're not as robust and reliable as NTFS. If you're strictly Windows you can use NTFS. So, it sounds like you got a 64Gb drive--- but, remember, you loose space when it's formatted depending on the FS Type.

4GB is the maximum size for a file if the device is formatted as Fat32. I recommend reformatting to exFat if you are using Windows XP to 7 and Apple systems.

If you have the sw for it. I am using 4 different size drives, the largest being 2 tb the smallest being 250 gb. I can access any drive or multiple drives through through the usb port.
