A file transfer system that includes a data source, a destination device, and a transfer server. The transfer server is configured to receive a file from the data source and determine a file size of the file. The transfer server is further configured to determine an available disk space for the destination device, to compare the available disk space to the file size of the file, and to determine that the available disk space is less than the file size of the file. In response to the determination, the transfer server is further configured to determine a file type for the file based on content within the file and to identify metadata linked with the determined file type. The transfer server is further configured to extract data from the file corresponding with the identified metadata and to send the data to the destination device.
