Supported file system

• Following the advent of information age, computer has become an indispensable electronic product of our everyday life. Naturally, we may always fall into computer-relating problems; for example, we are informed that the disk doesn't have enough space to contain certain data. At this moment, we will habitually check the hard disk property, checking whether the hard disk has enough space. However, the result turns out to puzzle us as the hard disk clearly has enough space to contain the data while we are informed the disk has inadequate space. How could this circumstance be? As a matter of fact, this phenomenon is usually caused by the limitation of file system which differs in supported size of an individual file.
