      My issue mabe somebody know a way around it....

      1. I installed RetropPe v4.2 in a 4gb micro sd card which I then inserted in my RaspberryPi 3, and updated it to the latest version.

      2. I then took out the 4gb micro sd card from my RaspberryPi and made an image of it onto my PC using win32Disk Imager.

      3. Then inserted a 64gb micro sd card on to my PC and flashed it to the image.

      4. When I connect over network to transfer my snes roms, images, videos, which is a total of 4GB it tells me that I don't have sufficient space. Why is this?

      NOTE! The only way it lets me transfer it is if I flash the 64gb micro sd card with the RetroPie v4.2 Image.
