FAT32 limits file sizes to 4GB and device sizes to 8TB. Choose your desired partition format from the drop down menu, and name your drive as you please. This is a typical partitioning format that is supported by practically all computers (windows, linux and mac os).Select your desired drive on the left side.Open Disk Utility by searching it in spot light or opening it from /Applications/Utilities.Back up all your files on the USB drive onto a secure location on your Mac.Note: Changing partition formats WILL DELETE ALL DATA ON THE DRIVE, so make sure you back up all the data on the drive before you start.

For you to be able to store a file greater than 4GB in size, you'd need to reformat the drive to either ExFAT (file size is limited to 16EB, or 16 BILLION TB) or a MacOS partition format (called HFS plus, file size limited to 8EB, or 8 BILLION TB).
Additionally, we see the same problem on that one system with SSHFS and FUSE for macOS 3.5.6. We haven't been able to reproduce this yet on any other 10.12.4 systems.
