The HDP Sandbox image itself of size 9-12 GB you you should have atleast that much disk space. https://hortonworks.com/tutorial/hortonworks-sandbox-guide/section/1/

Image File Sizes:
VMware – 9.9 GB
VirtualBox – 9.7 GB
Docker – 12.5 GB

And a dedicated 8GB RAM.

Is your filesystem NTFS on external drive?The above error "file is too large for destination file system" indicates a Windows FileSystem issue (Specially the filesystem formatting type)

This error "VT-x is not available (VERR_VMX_NO_VMX)" indicates that the Virtualization option is not enabled for the CPU in the local machine's BIOS (laptop).

You will need to enable Virtualization option on your Local Machine (I guess you are using Windows) So based on your Windows version please refer to the Microsoft relevant doc to enable it.
