Hey!

Let's say I had a folder of MP3's and I wanted to synchonize this with a folder called "MP3's" on a removable hard disk.

What software would you use in Windows to do this?

I'd prefer to do this rather than delete and re-copy the entire folder over. That just takes too long with 20GB of MP3's. :(

Thanks!

If you're in XP you can use sync manager
--------------------------------
To synchronize offline items
Open Synchronization Manager.
Select the check boxes next to the offline items that you want to synchronize, such as a mapped network drive or an Internet Explorer offline Web page.
Click Synchronize.
Notes

Files must be shared before they can be used with Offline Files. Once shared, files will display in the list of available items to synchronize.
To synchronize individual files, folders, or Web pages in Windows Explorer, My Computer, or Internet Explorer, select the item that you want to synchronize. On the Tools menu, select and click Synchronize.
Synchronization Manager can also be opened from the command line. Click Start, click Run, type in mobsync, and then click OK.

If I was in XP, half of my hardware wouldn't work due to lack of drivers....

So I'll tell you that I'm using ME.

Thanks again!

Yeah... I tried there first. Nothing there really seems to be what I need.

FYI: ME comes with Synchronzation Manager too, but it only synchs "my current web page" via network connection.
