Saving files to External HD
Whenever I try to create a Hard Disk and save it to my external HD it tells me the disk is full, now I know for absolute certain the disk is not full and I haven't been able to find out why it's saying that. Is there something in the code that prevents me from creating to external drives? Would creating on somewhere else and then moving it give me the same error, or would that work?

Re: Saving files to External HD
Is the external drive formatted in FAT32?
That has a 4 Gig File size restriction. You will need to format it in NTFS
