sync - What is the best way to keep a folder synchronized with my USB drive?


I know there is a similar topic on syncing between computers, but I'm looking for an application to run on one computer that will sync a "document/file" folder with a folder on my secondary/external USB drive.


What would be the best solution?


I know I could use Dropbox & Live Mesh, but they use up bandwith which isn't very good when I drop in a lot of large files.


I'm running Windows 7, but I assume any solution for Windows Vista would work just fine.



Answer



You could run a freeware synchronization program. I've used SyncBack (freeware) and I'm very happy with it. I use it to synchronize some folders to as NAS at home.
