You might want to look at either BackupPC or Unison. Unison is basically a two-way rsync that you run when you choose (or script via cron), so it can keep the newest file whether you change it on the PC or portable; normally with rsync you cannot do that. I've never used BackupPC but it is supposed to be a full-blown backup solution.
