Sorry, turns out that this is a restriction of the HDD's FAT32 file
system. In the case, a very poor error message.......

Title:
  Nautilus fails to copy large file, despite sufficient disk space

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When I try to copy a 12 GB DV video file to my external hard disk, Nautilus stops copying about half way, claiming "there is not enough disk space available". However, there actually is still more than enough free space.
  Exact wording of the error message is: "Error splicing file: File too large".

  Since I do not have a bugzilla account for upstream, I'd appreciate it
  if someone could forward this report for me. Cheers.
