    I am in need of a file sync software. I am receiving live stream of audio files (5min recordings, 3.5mb each) and i want to one-way sync these files into multiple file servers and drives. I need one with a /force overwrite capability and with a built-in sync scheduler or a command console for task scheduler.

    I have tried synctoy and filemyster, synctoy had issues with force overwriting active files, even though if you copy and paste manually it would overwrite fine. Filemyster had a buggy sync scheduler that wouldnt even run.

    Any suggestions welcome,
    TIA

    Little known but easy to use app is Toucan. It's a free, open source, portable app too, so no installer required!
