Thanks.  One of these days I'll get a 1TB card and see what happens.  If the phone doesn't see all of it, I'll find another use for it.

Most of my experience when exceeding hardware spec/capacity is that it won't register the full amount, but as much as it *can* mostly per backward compatible spec.  It might not at all if the disk controller is too foreign or behind, but usually gives something.

Same as it's mostly been since the beginning of time really.  If not seeing the full amount, it's a hardware/controller limitation.  Sometimes some medium ground, other times not all or at all.

I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but I don't know of
anywhere else to ask.  I have a MOTO G Power 2021 phone.  I've read the
specs on it and it supports SDXC micro sd cards.  Here's the part that
confuses me.  I've read numerous places that SDXC supports card with 
capacities up to 2TB, but the specs on the phone say it supports micro
SD cards up to 512 GB.   I'm wondering what happens if I put a 1TB card
in it.  Will it be able to access the entire card, or only half of it? 
If it only sees half the card, can I make two partitions of 512GB each
to get it to see all the space on the card?


Thanks
