I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what software I need to accomplish what I'm trying to do. I have a portable external drive that I'd like to keep synced with specific folders on my macbook (documents, downloads, music, pictures, movies, desktop). The harddrive isn't plugged in all the time so I don't need scheduled backups. What I would like is to be able to plug my drive in, press a few buttons, and have it sync the folders. Right now I have to do it all manually which is time consuming because half the time I can't remember what all has changed so I end up just copying everything which takes quite some time.

If someone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
