I'd suggest recording to a disk that has >25% free space, and then, if you want, copying it to the over-filled disk -- that might work. But better would never to use over 90% (<75-80% would be better if you care about performance) of your disk space in a partition. When a normal 100+MB/s I/O disk gets to 99% full, it's write speed may really be down to 5MB/s or less.
I'd suggest using XFS for the final destination. You can fill them up to capacity, and as the allocation of metadata areas is dynamic, you don't wast space there if the files are huge, as is the case. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
