Assuming they're on the same local network I thin Synctoy should do what you want.

Now running synctoy, all very straight-forward.
only slight problem is that it wants to overwrite over 4,000 of the files on the NAS. It doesn't recognise that they are the same. tried various ways to avoid this step, but other than manually unchecking over 4,000 actions, couldn't find a way.
I'm now just letting it run which I guess will take a while, but hopefully only have to do this step once and then it will just add new stuff.

kids pc had this error: Reboot and select proper boot device
took the HD out with intention of sticking it into a caddy to see if it was fubar. Couldn't find power supply for caddy. Stuck HD back into pc and all worked fine. odd.
on another topic; what's the best way of mirroring a folder on PC hard drive and nas?
i have a big flac library on the nas which is how i run my music through the stereo. When I get a new CD, i rip it to a folder on the PC hard drive. I want it to automatically mirror this folder onto the nas so I have two identical libraries.
Seems ever so straightforward, but I am too stupid. Messed about with Bit Torrent synch but haven't managed to get that to work.
