v2.0 has a nasty bug. The author fixed the bug but last version is still not up on sourceforge. He offered an alternative download link for version 2.0.1 that fixes the crash bug:

Re: FreeFileSync
Reason not to lean on this program as your only Sync program:
Last night I tried to compare and then mirror 6 gigs of information on two 10 gig drives. FFS wouldn't do it because it needs a huge temp folder to work from. For the first time in quite a while I had to go back to Dsynchronize (http://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=719), which was long my favorite, but wouldn't give me manual control over individual files.
