Don't dump everything in the root directory. On FAT32 there are limits to how many files can be contained in a single directory and it is affected but the length of the file name.

Other than that, have you validated the card is actually 256GB? There are fake cards around that claim one size but are actually much smaller. As you are hitting a problem at 14GB, it might actually be a 16GB card.
