Copy big file fails

I have several image files (created with Acronis True Image Workstation) on
local hard disk that are about 6 gigs each. Every time I try copying them
to a 250 Gig USB drive, I get an instant error message that there is not
enough room for the copy (which there is). Why can I not move the files?
It there some trick to copying large files?
