Hi

In the mogdata directory on my disk, I see that a file is stored as
the following:

mogdata/dev3/0/191/000/0191000953.fid

I want to know how is this structure understandable, and what all
things about the file is stored in the tables.

I'd appreciate if anybody helps me out on this.

regards,
Rishab

um, its pieces of the fid (file id).

/0/191/000/0191000953.fid
0 191 000 953 dot fid

As the other responder already noted, the .fid files are just the raw
files, no other formatting. All other metadata are in the `file` and
`file_on` tables. Some plugins allow adding further metadata.
