You can do it very easily using rsync.  RsyncX makes a nice graphical 
tool to use the rsync utility, without having to understand the unix 
command line.  It will create an executable script that you can just 
click to sync the two machines.  The beauty of rsync is that it 
compares what's on each disk, and only moves the data that is 
different, or that has changed, between rsync sessions.  We make 
extensive use of cron scripts that use rsync over gigabit ethernet to 
mirror non-RAID unix and linux servers, do workstation backups to 
network servers, etc.
