<shameless plug> You should try my synchronization application "File Synchronization". It's specifically built for OS X, it's fast and easy to use, and cheap at $9 if you decide to keep it. I initially designed it based on the "File Synchronization" in OS 9 from Apple, but added a few useful options (like automounting remote volumes, suppressing those annoying warnings when both files in the source and destination have been modified, etc.). In a soon to be released version, you will have the ability to move orphaned files to trash instead of deleting them and have a repeating synchronization on a user-specified interval. The new version might also be able to start a synchronization as soon as it detects a change in a directory to sync.
