On Windows XP use robocopy and Schedule.

"robocopy D:\path C:\path /MIR" works for me.

Better yet, schedule this:

robocopy D:\srcpath E:\destpath /E /B

This will copy over any new or modified files to your backup but _not_ delete any files/dirs that are in the destpath but not in the srcpath. This practice protects against a lost/deleted source being automatically synchronized over to your backup.

And run this only when you are sure of the state of the source files:

robocopy D:\srcpath E:\destpath /MIR

This will delete files/dirs which have been removed from the source, freeing up space on your backup device.
