MAXTRANSFERSIZE **=** { *maxtransfersize* | **@***maxtransfersize_variable* }

Specifies the largest unit of transfer in bytes to be used between [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] and the backup media. The possible values are multiples of 65536 bytes (64 KB) ranging up to 4194304 bytes (4 MB).

> When using SQL Writer (VSS\VDI) if the `MAXTRANSFER` size is set to 4 MB on backup, then 4 MB must be used on restore, otherwise they encounter the following error: **RESTORE requires MAXTRANSFERSIZE=4194304 but 65536 was specified.** This only happens on [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] databases where FileStream or In-Memory OLTP File Groups are involved.
