It sounds like it has made 2 petitions on the internal hard drive so although you have 1 TB you only have a relatively small C:\drive compared to the amount of songs you have on your F drive. I think this might be causing problems when Hoster uses your C drive for tempory storage as has been found in earlier posts although you say you checked the temp folder and only found a couple of songs in it.

In view of this I have to ask you another question, on your F drive are your music files stored in separate folders for different types, all in one single folder or no folder at all just in the F drive ?

Assuming your answer above is separate folders

I would try the following:
Open Hoster/Tools/Hoster data folder close Hoster but leave the data folder open, find your HosterInfoIndexed.ini file and delete it.
Now open Hosters build songs database dialog and the list of folders in the bottom left window should now be empty or it might just have a single folder something like C\MTU.
Now clear any highlighted buttons in the top area under song types to index, then press the rebuild database button, this should give you an empty database to start from.
Now assuming your files are in separate folders on the F drive and none of the song types to index buttons are highlighted, use the Add folder button (not the Add Folders/subfolders button) and select one of your folders from the F drive preferably the smallest one for this test and see if it indexes those files OK.
If all goes well add more folders one at a time, if after it indexed the folder it reports any thing like only indexed xxx out of xxxx or any other messages report back what happened.
