With the majority of journals available online, most PhD students are going to build up a large collection over the course of their work - a way to organise them could be a valuable tool. Bibliographic software, like Bibus, can also be used to manage PDFs, and there are a couple of other solutions mentioned in the comments on the lifehacker post.
