You should give Ztree a try then.  Fully functional 30 day trial can be
downloaded here:

Ztree is very popular among network people who have to manage files and
drives, etc.  To do a global entire drive search for a particular file name
you have to let it log the drive contents for the entire drive.  That
process takes about 1 minute for 40 gigabytes of files (about 184,000
files).  There are no limits to drive size or number of files that I'm
aware of.

Once the drive is logged just hit F for filespec and specify the file name
specification you want.  Then hit S for "show all" and a list of
all files (anywhere on the drive) with that specification will be instantly
shown. You can then sort that list by date, size, name, extension (with
sub-sorting by path if you choose).  If you have more than one drive logged
you can do the same thing for all logged drives by using G for Global
instead of S for showall.

Its about $25 to license a copy.  Very reasonable and free updates for life
(and its continuously updated with a new beta version with fixes and new
features out about 6 to 8 times per year.
