What device should be used to store 25165824 kilobytes?
With this file size (about 2.5GB) you should look at optical discs (DVDs), USB flash drives, or a hard disk (internal or external). However, you should take note:
- Up until a certain file size the default filesystem will not be able to handle single large files, and will require you to use a different filesystem that may or may not be compatible with every other device you choose to share the file with.
For example, up to about 2 to 3GB you will be capped and anything beyond that will be required to use UDF on DVDs. For USB flash drives and hard disks, the universal limit of FAT32 is 4GB per file, and will require you to use another file system (such as NTFS or exFAT for Windows).
