Simple fix. FAT32 is your limiter here.
You need to back up everything on the drive that is currently on there. Once you've done that, right click on the drive from My Computer in Windows, and select Format. Format it for NFTS. Once the format is done you'll be able to put your videos on your drive.
The longest parts will be the back up of your files and format.
FAT32 has a limited file size. NFTS doesn't.
