Last night I plugged in a 300GB Maxtor USB drive into my FreeBSD 6.0 server
(with a fat filesystem), and it told me it was too big!!

 

Haha, its full of my backups from my previous operating system (fedora) and
now im going to have a fun time getting those files onto my new FreeBSD
server!  Can someone recommend a course of action for me here?  Google isn't
really turning up anything interesting relating to size of external drives.

 

Thanks,

jonathan
