[QUOTE="MacKeeper, post: 1054793, member: 151283"] Although I don't have an exact solution to your problem and even though theoretically FAT32 can support logic drives of up to 8tb in size I still think this has to be a filesystem problem(if we exclude the possibility of the device being corrupted itself). I don't have anything to support this opinion but mostly it just seems rather... wasteful to format a 2tb drive to a file system that does not support files over 4gb in size(meaning no dvd images, HDvideo files, etc). I would suggest that you try to format it into NTFS, get a driver to support NTFS on your MAC and try copying all that music to the drive then. [/QUOTE]
