This is exactly how I would personally do it. On shutdown, simply store the status as a temporary (upgraded each cycle) “note” file. That database refresh time can easily be minimized. All it takes is a little more code.

What’s possible is the ability for a player to be aware of what media is being copied to / deleted from it, and immediately refresh its internal database with just that delta, without having to re-read the entire contents of its internal memory and expansion card.
Not sure I understand the suggestion regarding shutdown. This is an issue regarding the firmware being aware as to whether or not the contents of the expansion card have been modified once a sync operation has been completed.
The database itself appears to be stored on flash, as it is not rebuilt upon startup.
