I have been using anglebird 2Tb cfexpress card for R5c. I used a Sandisk 512 gb cf express for R5. I have not had any problem with my cards.

I shoot 8k raw 25fps and occasionally 50 fps. Sometimes the recording stopped when the 512 card was full towards the end of an event. It never reached 512… but might be 497 gb..

As for the 2Tb card, I could record 600 gb for a full day of shooting during travel. I offloaded the card with Angelbird card reader… which was much faster than direct camera to Mac for such size of data transfer per day.
I tend to offload and reformat the card everyday after shooting. I have not had an issue for the past year of use.

Thanks for the additional info bestzoom. It definitely seems this issue is unique to me. Out of interest what firmware do you have on the r5c?
