yCopy2
Spacejock Software
yCopy2 is a backup/sync tool with multi-threading and a rich set of command-line variables. Warning: the SYNC option will recursively delete files & folders from the destination path which aren't present on the source. Use with caution, and experiment with unimportant files first. I've been using yCopy2 to back up my stuff for a couple of years now, but that doesn't mean the program will suit your needs. Use this software at your own risk. Due to a limitation in Microsoft .Net, yCopy cannot back up files where the source or destination path + filename is longer than 256 characters. E.g. C:\Temp\etc\etc\more stuff\(to a depth of 256 chars)\Some really long file name.doc. A network mode where yCopy2 will communicate in a client-server fashion, speeding up lan backups. Built-in scheduling to run backups at specified intervals. Compatible with Windows 7 SP1 and newer.Starting Price: Free -

TeraCopy
Code Sector
In case of a copy error TeraCopy will try to recover. If unable to recover in the worst case scenario it will simply skip the problematic file, not terminating the entire transfer. It can also wait for network or device reconnection. Unnecessary files can be skipped to reduce the transfer time. During the process, TeraCopy shows detected errors, and allows you to fix the problem by recopying only the problematic files. TeraCopy can verify files after they have been copied to ensure that they are identical. This is done by comparing hashes of source and target files. TeraCopy can optionally show a confirmation dialog on every drag and drop operation. It can prevent you from moving folders accidentally from one location to another. TeraCopy can keep history of recently used directories, as well as show folders which are open in Explorer and other file managers.Starting Price: $29.95 one-time payment -

rsync
rsync
rsync is an open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer. rsync is freely available under the GNU General Public License. The GPG signing key that is used to sign the release files is available from the public pgp key-server network. If you have automatic key-fetching enabled, just running a normal "gpg --verify" will grab my key automatically. Or, feel free to grab the gpp key for Wayne Davison manually. rsync is a file transfer program for Unix systems. rsync uses the "rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for bringing remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand. Optionally preserves symbolic links, hard links, file ownership, permissions, devices and times. Internal pipelining reduces latency for multiple files. -
