If you receive an error 0 while copying files to an external hard drive in OS X, the issue is most likely due to the file format of the drive. Most external hard drives are pre-formated as FAT32 which cannot handle files 4GB or larger.
CAUTION: Any data on the drive will be lost during this process. Remember to backup your data first!!!
To reformat the drive, launch Disk Utility and click on your external drive on the left hand side. In the Format Tab, select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and name the drive if you like. Now click erase and your drive will be ready.
