XP Home SP3 and Large USB Drives

    Hi

    I have an XP Home 2002 SP3 machine. It has some largeish (500G) internal SATA drives which it can handle without a problem.

    However, it can't handle large USB drives - 500GB or 1.5TB both report "disk full" errors when I have only copied about 160GB of data to them.

    I'm pretty sure my USB port is USB2, but not sure how to confirm that. What can I do to get Windows to play nice with my large USB drives?

    Thanks!
