Folders with High File Counts

After 20 years of digital photography, this is the way:

    YYYY/YYYY-MM/YYYY-MM-DD/YYYY-MM-DD.SHASUM.IMG_NNNN.EXT

This lets you keep date metadata on individual files moved or copied out, detect bit rot, etc.

Interesting. Have you noticed any bit rot on your images?

No, but it's a thing that happens. I keep mine on zfs raidz2 with weekly scrubs.
