RAID Mirroring W removable disc?

[Ashton]

Just wondering if it's possible to set up RAID mirroring with a removable disc - specifically I have an internal and an external disc that I'd like to both contain the same data so I can take the external with me and have it updated every time I plug it into the PC. (or some program that set up redundancy between 2 discs when both are present, but still run off 1 when the other is removed without the need to manually copy data back and forth)

NOTE:
I am well aware of 'sync' cloud services like Dropbox, but this is a 2tb drive, so it's not practical for this much data.

You can do that easily on non windows operating systems however I assume you mean windows 7.

Also wouldn't a backup be better?

Vista Premium X64 unfortunately...

Well, normally, but right now I'm working between my laptop and desktop on massive files (Some projects ~10gb in size) so unless I can set a backup to only update changed files... (Havn't really used backup settings since Tapes, which meant it took HOURS despite sometimes only a few files being changed)

What about something like sync toy, robocopy. richcopy or even rsync. Although all of these you will have to manually start.

Use task scheduler for it.

MirrorFolder might work for you as well.

I'll check MirrorFolder, the others I would need to schedule as "when I plug in the device" because there is no single set time that I can guarantee that it will be plugged in...
