I know it was FAT, but not sure which one. I read

about having a limit in thr oot location. Does NTFS and other FS' have
also this problem?


NTFS does not have a limit on directory size, including the root
directory. But the file system used more space for its various
overhead purposes, which makes it less suitable for smaller devices.
