How many of those files/folders are being put in the root directory
of the drive?
none. the root directory only has very few subdirectories, like:
photo
documents
software
logs
and almost all the files are photos, organized by date, something like:
photo/2009
photo/2010
photo/2011
photo/2012/20120101
photo/2012/20120209
etc etc
I am on a different pc right now so I cannot give exact numbers, but I
don't think any directory has more than ~500 files and subdirectories
in it.
