Your drive in question is probably formatted in the FAT32 file system.
 There is a 4GB filesize limitation in FAT32.

If thats a serious problem for you, and you don't expect to be using
this external drive on a Mac or anything you could always reformat to
NTFS which does not have such a limit.  (well it technically does have
a limit but its some crazy-huge number well in excess of the size of
your drive and thus one that you wont ever hit)
