Need an additional 5.99 PB
I am now trying to copy a large file 4.2 GB from my old laptop into my new one. The problem is that before it even starts copying there is an error message that says "Need an additional 5.99 pb" 
Obviously it's a bug somewhere. Any help how to resolve this issue? Thanks!

I agree with CSIPComputing - is your local drive formatted with FAT32?
According to J Squared, it says:-

Confirmed the USD storage device is FAT32.
I will now try to transfer it's contents and reformat it as suggested and will let you know the outcome. Hope it solves the problem. Thanks!

Definitely has to be a bug, like you said. Try compressing the file (WinZIP, et al.) first and then try running the copy job again to see if you get better results this way.
