With disk storage cost going down drastically over the years, I've
always just replaced the old set with new ones with at least twice the
capacity, started from scratch, and kept the old set around until the
new ones accumulated as much history as I thought I'd need. But, I
like to use raid1 sets so you can recover all the content from a
single working drive.
