Sounds like a RAM limitation in the catalog database for names and metadata. I've never run into it, as my 1TB cards are almost full, yet don't have that many files on them. The space usage on mine is because of sheer file sizing due to resolution of the files and content. Everything is FLAC, 24/96, 24/192, or DSD.Seems there is a limit to how many files the A45 will handle. I have 2 identical 1TB microSD cards with about 45.000 files and 850MB on them, one in my 1Z and one in my A45. The 1Z handles them all but the A45 gives up at around 41.000 files. It shows the amount of space used correctly but will not show all the files, neither in any of the category views nor in folder view. I can get it to show the files that it initially does not show by deleting some of the files it did show but no matter what I do it will only show about 41.000 files at any one time
The 1Z has more RAM which is probably why it can handle larger databases.
The reason that it shows space usage correctly is because it's reading the file system data for counts and space usage directly instead of calculating it from the database info.
