That's one thing that worries me because I had always set my JBOD up 
year by year and when I've filled one year, I retire those hard 
drives to use for reference only.  I guess that's not possible with 
RAID or Drobo?  How do you retire older files?  Is that possible or 
do you have to fill everything totally up and start over?  I'd rather 
do it year by year.  My LightRoom catalogues are year by year also.
