Is there a software that can mirror folders from PC to PC?
Hey everyone,
I have a PC & Laptop and have my music library folder copied to both of them. Currently, I'm having to manually transfer files from the PC to Laptop. The problem with this is that I sometimes tend to miss any new files added so I was wondering if there is any software that can make this process easier by possibly mirroring the folders (highlighting which files are on A and not B) Thanks

Thank you so much for the replies, I will take a look at the software listed.
I haven't considered a NAS drive but quite interested now you have mentioned it, how would this work?

Depending on the size of the files Dropbox/Skydrive.
Otherwise rsync/robocopy. |

I do this with Bluetooth overnight.
Slow but it works but you do need the Bluetooth aerials of course and have to open every folder which can be a bind if there are too many of them. Perhaps not suitable if you are a business. |

Googledrive? Or a NAS. |
