My work laptop is on the fritz, but I was able to burn my data files to a CD. Now I want to backup my outlook pst files, but one is 500 MB and the other is 1.5 GB. How can I backup the bigger file? The laptop only has a CD writer, not a DVD writer. And, the laptop is not able to access the network, so putting the pst on some share drive is not an option.
I haven't tried yet, but I don't think I will be able to access Outlook to split the big pst file into several smaller pst files. If I can access Outlook, then I don't think this will be a problem. If I can't access Outlook, I think I'm screwed.

How about a USB flash drive? You can get 2GB or 4GB for a reasonable price these days.

Tried connecting the laptop through a USB cable directly to another machine to copy the file?
WinRAR (free trial version) can compress and split a big file into chunks ("volumes") for you
