Format it with ext3. It supports file sizes upto 16 gigs. If you use the
drive on windows, use NTFS. It should support file sizes greater than 4
gigs. =)
There is an ext3 rexplorer for windows too.

Another option would be to cut the file into several parts and store
them as .1 .2 etc... And then use cat to merge them back
