You Cannot Get a Large File to Copy to the Peerless Disk.
PC Users Only—
An individual file that is 4 GB or larger cannot be copied to a Peerless disk due to FAT 32
file format constraints. If you have a file that is 4 GB or larger, try using a compression utility to make the file
smaller. If you can compress it to less than 4 GB, you will be able to copy it to the Peerless disk.
Peerless Disk Fails Format When Using Windows 2000.
Windows 2000 defaults to a FAT 16 file format when formatting disks. The Peerless disk requires a FAT 32
file format.
Formatting your Peerless disk
using IomegaWare software, rather than Windows 2000, will solve
this problem.

The USB Peerless Drive System is designed to the latest USB specification. However, there are
some USB devices (including controller chips and hubs) currently available on the market that do not conform
to the USB standard. If you experience problems after connecting the Peerless drive, your system may

possible solutions. We also recommend checking the Iomega web site
