How to transfer data that is greater than 4gigs to an external hard drive?

Q. I have a NTFS windows XP system and when I try to transfer data to my external hard drive that is greater than 4 gig I get a message stating there is not enough free disk space. The hard drive has 500gigs and I know I have at least 300gigs free. Does anyone know how to transfer the data without any problems?
I still have over 150gigs of free space in my internal hard drive and my external hard drive is NTFS also.

A. Try transferring it using a firewire cable and not the USB one.

A. Well you are looking at some serious money! Can I ask why you don't just get a dedicated T1 line from location to location? Or use a web server to store data?

Is being able to transfer data to another smartphone by them simply touching a feature you really want?
Q. So now 2 android smartphones can transfer data like playlists to each other by them simply touching. Is that a feature you really want in a smartphone? I don't like the idea of such an easy transfer of data. I am thinking data you don't want in there could get transferred.

A.

What is the best way to transfer data between 2 computers?
Q. Is it possible to transfer data with just a RJ-45 cable, or do I need to get an expensive USB data transfer cable? I have done it with a wireless network in the past, but it is extremely slow. It took about 24 hours to transfer 15 gigs. What should I do?

A. The best way to do this is using a Crossover Ethernet cable. You can plug one end of this onto the network port on one computer, and the other end into the network port on the second computer. This connects the two directly with speeds up to 1gbps (approx. 20 times faster than standard 54mbps wireless)

You will need to set up a shared folder, though, and make sure the wireless connection is DISABLED, as the wireless will automatically override the wired connection :)
