Automate your copy-move-delete with a free GUI...
-
If you aren't good at scripting, here's a link to Belvedere. It does a variety of automated copy/delete/move functions. I have some screen shots of my copy, purge, and recycle bin rules. This has been manual before I got here, and I'm not terribly good at scripting. Basically the newest ones get copied, age to 31 days and get purged to the recycle bin, which empties once per month. The file server they move to, retains copies for 6 months.
