Out of disk space on my main drive after file copy to a USB disk?

R

Ray Stevens

I copied a large VMWare file to a USB drive from my laptop which had around
4GB of remaining space. Part way through the transfer I began to get a "low
disk space" warning and discovered I was down to 0 bytes of remaining space.
I am guessing the file copy created a cache somewhere that I need to delete.

Does anyone know if this is the case or what would cause this problem? (I
was only doing the file copy and nothing else)

You need a larger hard drive.
