Windows has a limit of 4Gb if your system is Windows 95, 98, or ME. The same restriction applies for FAT32-formatted Windows 2000/XP volumes. NFTS formatted volumes using 2000 or XP do not have this limit. You might get an error message if you try to place several million files in a single encrypted folder, but that is almost a ridiculous number of files to be on a single drive. If it were the case, they can be split up and placed in several folders.
