Windows – How to synchronize local directory with another local directory on another partition or disk

directoryftpsynchronizationwindowswinscp

I would like to synchronize my local directory content with another local directory on another partition or disk (or e.g. a pendrive).
I can synchronize my local directory content with a remote one (through FTP) with WinSCP, even with keeping remote directory up to date continously, but I don't know any programs that do the same between local directories.
I'm mainly looking for a program for Windows, and it should also be compatible with XP.

Can you help me with this? Thanks in advance.

ROBOCOPY a command line utility can do that (and more). It is included with Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. Available in the Windows Resource Kit for various other versions (Windows 2000, Windows 2003 etc).
