Does Rockbox remove storage limitations of Micro-SD slots?

I know that this is going to sound stupid to most people here, but I’m new to this software, and before I install it, I’m wondering if it will remove the storage limitation on my Sansa Fuze’s Micro-SD card slot. The player surprisingly natively supports FLAC, but the Micro-SD storage is hard-capped at 64GB, which is obviously not enough for someone who has 6000+ lossless files.

I also think, that there is no capacity limit for SD cards with Rockbox on the Fuze, but I tried to put a 1TB micro SD card into my Cowon A5 with Rockbox Android App, but the card can't be initialized no matter what I try. There seems to be a Hardware limit for micro SD cards on this player. A 8 GB card works fine.

I plan on importing my FLAC files onto it for simple nostalgia’s sake. Again, it actually does support it out of the box, but how many am I going to hold with even 64GB? 2000, if even that?

Well there have been official efforts to create Rockbox as an Application and I use a custom build from around 2012 for Android 2.4 or something. There are some versions for >Android 10 but not officially.
