File mirroring/replication software suggestions

I'm looking for some software that will mirror multiple directories on one drive to anohter. I'm backup up all of our family photos and movies, as well as our growing MP3 collection.

I have two 250 GB drives, but the folders in question only add up to (a projected) 60-70GB so it seems a waste to RAID1 the entired drive.

I'm currently evaluating Ghost Files, which is nice b/c it's free, but it appears to have some big flaws.

Can anyone recommend some good file mirroring software, preferably freeware but I'm willing to pay a little if it's good software.

TIA.
 
I have used a freeware program called syncBack for the exact same thing. It has some issues as well that I haven't taken the time to look into. So they could be me as far as I know.
 
Thanks. I downloaded that and it seems much better than Ghost Files.

Actually, it's quite the coincidence (or my bad karma, more likely), but shortly after I posted this topic my main drive in my system went down. I was concerned that it died completely -- right as I was starting to implement a backup strategy -- but it is just a boot problem and I was able to put it in another system and back off my files.

Thanks again.
