  1. I believe the proper way to accomplish this is to use the NTFS USN Journal. I can't say that I've ever used it, but you can query if changes have occurred without needing a complete rescan. Link (Obviously this is Windows NTFS specific, I'm not sure about other OSes/filesystems) As this is maintained by the filesystem, it should be correct between boots/logoff, etc. It *could* be wrong if you used a 3rd party NTFS driver when dual booting Linux. BT Sync should have configurable settings for when/how often to scan (if at all) or to use the change log and filesystem change notifications. This is especially important for more mobile devices where battery life is a precious resource. Thanks.
