Andy,

I come from a NARA Federal Records Center background, where each box has a
unique location on a shelf (6 boxes per shelf,1 high).  I'm curious about
other methods. Besides being 4 high and 4 deep, how wide is your storage
unit?  In your system, how do you track the location of a particular box
when you go to pull retrievals?  Does the computer tell you precisely where
it's located in your 16-box Rubic's cube, or do you have to "search until
you find it" within a general area?  After you pull the desired records or
box, do you put all the ones you had to move back in their original location
(minus the pulled boxes), or do they go to the back of the stack?  If they
go to the back, I can see where the less-frequently accessed boxes would
eventually end up in the back two rows.
