BTW, what's the file size limit for NTFS? And is it also affected by
whether you are running a 64-bit OS or not?

A quick Google search found this page:
http://www.ntfs.com/ntfs_vs_fat.htm

So, effectively 2 TB is the largest file size because that is the
largest volume size you can have (can't have a larger file then disk
:-)).  But that sounds like perhaps the file size is not limited like
in the FAT filesystems.
