In case that HJSplit app above is not yet enough, you might be interested in FFSJ below,

FFSJ 3.3 - Free Fast File Splitter and Joiner. You are probably familiar with HJSplit - Freeware to Split and Merge Files of any Type and Size, Here's now another contender i've recently used, called FFSJ. Yeah, both apps have same functionalities, but FFSJ claims that it is the fastest file splitter and joiner. After using FFSJ, it is much faster than HJSplit.

If you've ever used HJSplit (maybe as i mentioned before for sending large files via email?, files backup?, or etc), you must be familiar with files ending with .001, .002, .003, etc (those files are pieces from a larger file that has been split apart). Now with FFSJ, all those files are still supported (both split and join), Alternatively, you can split/join files ending with .__a, .__b, .__c, etc.

FFSJ by Le Minh Hoang consists of two main programs: File Splitter and File Joiner. File Splitter enables you to split a large file into small chunks which are easy to be sent and stored, while File Joiner allows you to join these split parts together so that the original file is restored.
