This has to do with a minor difference in the timestamp of the different 
partition types.  I ran into this problem at home backing up Windows machines 
to a linux based NAS device with robocopy.
The robocopy solution was to add the /FFT switch which is "assume FAT File 
Times (2-second granularity)"

Works fine now.

Subject: Re: [tech-geeks] NAS Backup?

I'm interested to see how this works.  My experience with rsync and 
Windows hosts was that it couldn't really tell whether files were 
changed or not... it pulled all the data, every time.

I found some documentation stating similar results, so I don't think it 
was just a conf error on my part.
