Interested on how people get organized here, for those that use many different machines on a network what's your naming scheme to keep track of which is which.
And files, specifically photos. For those that hoard pictures of anime, memes, pornography. Give me some ideas.
Thanks.
I name all my computers words that start with M. Music, magic, merlin, moody, etc.

Different machines: Touhou characters, thanks Sysadmin for that
Pictures of anime: charactername_subject1+subject2 (e.g. cirno_naked-bigtits), kinda like boorus
Memes: pepe_nazi
3D porn: who gives a shit it's all the same
I name my computer whatever pop culture thing comes to mind first. My last laptop was called TARDIS, my current one is called Overmind. For file naming, it's typically in the format of NameOfCharacter(s)-Description.png, although I've changed things over the years, and sometimes I'll just keep the filename if it wasn't just a simple timestamp.

Pornganizer for porn
Machines:
Org name and random hex digits if collisions are really a concern. At home, person name and make/model of the device. Only virgins give their machines silly names.
Hard drives and other storage devices:
Just buy a bigger hard drive. For archival purposes: label with year and content type (e.g. photos, videos, etc).
Anime pictures and porn:
Whatever forms the primary key for the site you downloaded it from. For pixiv, that would be artist ID, post ID, and page number. You should be able to reconstruct the source URI from the filename. You might also throw the creation date in there for good measure.
Anything else:
Take a look at how people name things on classic file sharing networks. People working together tend to arrive at the most sensible solution.
I name my computers after chinese cartoon girls I enjoy. Currently posting from Yurika.

its random
desktop - murasame
media center laptop (rip) pantera
main laptop - unsat_laptop
surface pro - babymagnun
phone - keitai
now i need to come up with a new name for my media center desktop.
I gave up organizing my pics in 2009. Someday this machine learning bullshit will pay off and a bot will organize my porn for me. I'd imagine tag based systems are better than hierarchical directories but I cbf to find out.

Tagging systems are alright, but they still have their limitations.
What you really need is an object oriented system.
