Computer Forums - View Single Post - External Hard drive space issue

I haven't ever had this problem before, but I would guess that Windows is caching that file on the C: drive, and thows the error once capacity is reached. Do you have any large files you can temporarly store on the external drive to free up enough space and try it again?
