I use a similar system. I have paper console tape on each drive and write the date last used on it and also keep a text file log of which drive and when. The backup batch file also writes a timestamp.txt to the root of the drive.
I also have a set I curate and put in with the family & household papers. That doesn't have any of my personal crap, just documents, photos, and family history etc.
