    I have an important folder that i really need to keep well backed up and up to date. I periodically update this folder and need these changes constantly to be backed up. I have two internal hdd's and 1 external drive onto which i always resave this folder after i make a change. its a bit of a pain in the ass always having to save the changes three times, so is there any way i can like synchronise this specific folder in a way that i only have to save the change once, and it will automatically update the other 2 folders on the other two hdds?

    RAID? Version control software?

    Allway Sync is really good & you can schedule it too.
