Did I catalogue incorrectly?
Posted: Fri Aug 14, 2026 9:22 am
Recently I attached a 4TB drive to my NAS and had Neofinder catalogue it. It took nearly 7 days to do this.
The final file is a huge 165+GB.
Did I do something wrong, should I have created a catalogue for each top level folder?
(For what it's worth I create a folder a year and subsequent subfolders for media or hardware type.)
The drive's details are
Size 4.0TB
Free Space 717.7 GB
Files 1,532,176
Folders 400,676
Data size 3.3TB
Catalogue size 165.4GB
