Looks good.  I saw that the dividers are removable for larger parts.  How many do you think you will need?

Ian.M:
If you don't mind wrapping anything ESD sensitive in aluminum foil those will do well enough for ICs and smaller through-hole parts if you put a very thin sheet of foam under the lid to stop small parts jumping compartments.

SMD parts are best left in their tape and put in purpose designed pockets in a binder.   

thm_w:
For SMD, thousands of parts will fit into a single A4 sized binder, as Ian said.

I store a lot of components in "white literature mailers":



in which I have added dividers like in this pic:

The ones I use are 2 inches high, but you can get them in a wide assortment of dimensions. I like them because I can stack them and I can organize the inside in a variety of ways.
