SharePoint 2007 File Sizes and Limitations

A user performing an upload to SharePoint is limited to 50mb per upload. This could be a single file of 50mb or a multi-file upload of 10 5mb files. 

The largest single file that can be stored in SharePoint was 2gb, due to SQL 2005 limitations.

A blob in SQL 2005 cannot be larger that 2gb. Each file is stored as a blob in the SQL Server content database for the site collection.

SQL 2008 can handle files larger than 2gb.
