How can I write an empty file to Azure Storage File Share

Question

I read an empty file from blob storage and get an empty stream.
But when I try to write the stream to File Share, it tells me:

Azure.Core: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. (Parameter 'length').

Here are the codes(code works fine for non-empty files):

ShareDirectoryClient directory = shareClient.GetDirectoryClient(targetFolder);
ShareFileClient targetFile = directory.GetFileClient(targetFileName);

using (Stream fileStream = new MemoryStream())
{
await blobDownloadInfo.Content.CopyToAsync(fileStream);
fileStream.Position = 0;
targetFile.Create(fileStream.Length);
targetFile.Upload(fileStream);
}

I spoke with our SDK service team and they advised there should be no issue creating an empty file in Azure Files. They pointed to the examples located on GitHub. If you feel there is some error or bug I recommend opening an issue directly with the SDK team.
