[QUOTE="compufunk, post: 572684, member: 288741"] Splitting the files at 1Gb or so seems to be standard practice. I don't know about your receiver, but you can set the threshold for splitting files on some. I'm not sure why its done, but possibly software can better handle a smaller filesize, rather than having a whole film in one big 4.7Gb lump. Browse any DVD and you will see that the .VOB video files are split into 1Gb or under. I have to ask, why are you bothering to mess around with partitions and filesystems at all? If you format the drive in the receiver and it does it in FAT32, then a PC, MAC or Linux box can read it. :) [/QUOTE]
