Can't move installation file to offline DAW

    I just bought and downloaded the Abbeyroad 70's drums. Download went fine, but when I try to move the files to a movable drive to install it on my offline DAW, it won't work. I tried both USB sticks and two different hard drives, and have plenty of space free (300Gb+) on them, but I always get the same error saying that "the file is too large for this file system".

    What does it mean? What am I doing wrong, and how should I do this?

    Thanks in advance for your kind help.

    Like the error message suggests, it looks like the file system on the USB stick doesn't support large files:
    File too large problem.

    So you could try to format an USB stick (like in the link above) and install the files from the stick onto your second computer.
