How do you organize and store your collection of downloaded 3D models? Do you keep them on an external drive, cloud storage, or just leave them scattered in your downloads folder like a digital hoarder?

Oh, I learned the hard way after losing a whole folder of unsorted STLs during a computer crash that keeping everything in one messy downloads folder is a disaster waiting to happen. Now I use a simple folder system sorted by category like props miniatures and terrain then back everything up on both an external drive and a cloud service because losing a model you paid for or spent hours remixing feels terrible. That routine saved me when I found a great model on https://www.gambody.com/ and later needed to reprint it after my cat knocked the first print off the shelf. A good habit is renaming files immediately with the designer name and version so you are not guessing which file is which six months later.
