Whiles trying to move a relatively large file (4.3GB+) yesterday to my external Western Digital HDD storage system I encountered an error “File is too large for destination file system” message. A quick check online and I discovered that my storage system was under Fat32 system which only support 4GB max per file, to rectify this I will have to change the file system to NTFS. Further reading shows the procedure to be relatively easy and painless but as a precaution always make a backup!
The error
Fat32 file system
Using command prompt heck the volume name (in my case it’s “My Book”) by typing vol d: and type convert d: /fs:ntfs to start converting
It will prompt you to enter your volume label before conversion, mine was “My Book”. Press enter and after a couple of minutes it’s done. Easy 
Let’s give it a go….. perfect
