Hi,
I wonder is there any good way to sync data from computer to external harddisk ? I need to carry a data between my work and home. Both computer use linux. Using cp just waste time and my data is pretty big ( 40 GB) and alot of my work is just minor edit. Is there any tools to sync just a modified data in linux ?
thanks.

I use rsync to carry out a similar job and it works a treat:

If you like GUIs have a look at unison.

One of the most wonderful commands on the planet:
rsync -av --delete /mnt/source/dir/ /mnt/target/dir/

What ninian said... you can add a --progress flag in there to see what's going on as well.
