    hey guys, I'm looking for a file and folder manager that will help me compare and find duplicates from one folder with another, remove non-matching files from a folder and replace a file if newer or not there.

    To illustrate:

    Folder A and Folder B

    Compare Folder B with Folder A.

    If a file exists that is in folder B and NOT in folder A, add it.

    If a file in folder B is newer than what's in A, replace it.

    To keep multiple folders and thousands of files synchronised can be a real headache without a convenient method to automate the task. Consider this scenario: you have several folders on your Mac that must be kept fully synchronised with an external USB memory stick, hard drive, or simply with another computer or mobile phone.
