Interesting idea. Using three identifiers, as a key. md5() returns a 32 hex-digit value. That means that there are can only be a maximum of 3.4 * 10^38 possible outcomes for the md5(). This means that there there is a 1 in 340000000000000000000000000000000000000 chance of a collision between filenames. Thank you Rory, Richard and Jason you really helped me out.
