Hi all,
Does anyone know of an application that I can use to compare the
contents of two disks (or at least two folders) to verify that all of
the contents are the same? I am running Mac OS 10.4.11.
The reason I am looking for this is that I tried to back up my data
(about 60 GB) from one hard disk to another by dragging and dropping
all of the folders. Unfortunately, some of the files did not get
copied. I tried to clean it up manually--very tedious--and in the end
I am still not sure that my back up is complete. In the past I have
just started over and copied only a few folders at a time, but this
is also very tedious and the truth is I am still not sure that
everything gets copied.
I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks,
David
