  1. Can a sync program sync external HDD to external HDD?


    I keep all important data on external HDD and periodically wish to synchronize this dats with another external HDD. Is this at all possible especially because drive letters themselves change depending on the PC/laptop that you attach them to and the order in which you attach them?

    Looking for advice on a sync program that can manage this if at all or any any hints or workarounds on this issue

    :)

    syncing files with external drive.

    I've just "discovered" a Microsoft Software Sync Toy (you can find it ---https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15155) . If you ready have the "briefcase" file on your external HDD, you can make a copy on the same HDD, rename it, delete
    the contents and use it to sync other files. It's a work around but it looks like it works. Copying the "briefcase" seems like it also copies it's sync features.

    regards SB
