I bought a new hard disk and wanted to copy all files in a ntfs partition to another ntfs partition. These files are pdf files and bak files used both by win7 and ubuntu.



Can Rsync be used to sync files in a ntfs partition to another ntfs partition?



Thanks

  • If you mount both source and destination NTFS pertitions on your Ubuntu machine, I doubt that rsync will care about the underlying filesystems. Have you tried it and failed?

You can also do the sync in Ubuntu. You do not need specific options. Just use the -a (or --archive) option like you would do for a mirror copy from linux file systems to linux file systems.

    rsync is originally unix utility to sync source and destination. Now rsync is even ported to windows as well. You may need cygwin or mingw on windows machine for the same.
    Only condition is that both operating system should see each other's filesystem and ssh should be enabled both side.

      You can install rsync in cygwin on Windows and do the data copy. Just like you are in a *NIX terminal session.



      The path naming is a bit different.



      For example, if you want to copy all data from partition E: to F: => rsync -av --progress --stats /cygdrive/e /cygdrive/f



      BTW: Not sure if rsync for cygwin is capable of keeping all the NTFS properties/attributes. Most likely yes. But it loese attributes, permissions when copying from NTFS -> *NIX file systems.
