Backup/Folder sync software?

    Hi,

    I have a laptop and an external HD.

    I want to back up certain files and folders stored on the laptop to the external drive.

    Rather than just ghost the drive I'm looking for software that will keep files/folders on each drive in sync.

    ie. If new files are added to a folder on the laptop, only those files will be copied to the external drive so that the folder will be synced.

    Does such software exist? Any suggestions?

    Thanks :)

    rsync looks very interesting.

    I wonder if anything similar exists that's native to win32.

    This looks good. Not freeware though.
