You could use the NT Resource kit utility Robocopy.

robocopy source destination /mir /L will list all differences between two directory structurs. Make sure you use the /L (list), otherwise it will mirror, and probably delete files on destination.

We use robocopy to
- backup a small remote site
- check on differences on multiple application servers.
