There are a number of utilities that can sync directories.  Synctoy has
a nice GUI.  Robocopy is similar, but a command-line only tool that can
easily be used in a batch file or called from a script.

You don't need a typical backup program if you only want to mirror a
directory.  You don't really need old copies of files.  BUT... make
absolutely certain that  the directory that you're mirroring is 100%
healthy.  For that reason, it's a bad idea to schedule a sync operation
(daily, weekly, etc.) to run automatically.  For instance, if you were
to accidentally delete a bunch of files without noticing, then they'd
be removed from the mirror copy as well.
