I do not quite understand - if you want to have 2 repositories of files keep synced, why not just have
rsync be triggered in an interval. Depending on the command switches you hand to it, it will keep it synced for you.
It does not really need the help of
find to do this.
find will run always over this 160 GB (which can still be a lot of files), which can take some time. rsync maintains a file list it builds just once and tracks only the differences which should be much faster.
