Couple of suggestions I would add to this. The fastest way to transfer huge files from a Linux box to a Windows 7 box is to use grsync via ethernet. Also .mkv files are a kind of universal container file which can contain differing OS information and meta-data depending how edits are made and simple things like Windows fonts can slow down or mess up transfers between Linux and Windows. Add grsync to Windows 7, and a commander style file manager, and then ethernet the Windows box to the Linux box.
If you are going to continue using USBs between the transfers format to ext2, and install ext2fsd to Windows 7 and a commander style file manager. Still 64G is an awfully big container file for a run of the mill consumer style (Windows 7) box to copy from Linux no matter how you do it and meta-data changes and editing quirks can mess with transfers.
*Important* I believe ext2fsd will work fine in Windows 7 64bit mode as long as the USB being accessed is formatted to ext2. There are issues with 64bit mode in newer Linux OSs on ext4 file transfers.
