Just my two cents worth:
The archiving of digital images/media can become like trying to water a garden using a sieve -the time and energy expended do not match the rewards. And your archive is growing all the time, so it's like an expanding garden. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

My advice is therefore to be very ruthless in your choice of what needs to archived, otherwise you'll spend many hours and nights in front of a computer.
But in general Lightroom is a good choice for this, as Sylvain says. If you are using a Canon, the DPP software is also very good as a quick viewing/overview tool since it shows all your drives in a data tree layout and you can quickly access all folders.
