my normal HD was running out of space so i tried to transfer it to my other hardrive

but guess what? i couldnt!

the other HD has 71Gs free but it keeps telling me that i dont have enough space.

You need to convert your Drive F to the NTFS file format - under FAT32 the maximum size of any file is 4Gb.
