I have a few hard drives that appear to have been duplicated and I want to see what files appear one one drive that aren't present in the other.

HxD Compare

 

EDIT:
Never mind.

This will compare individual hex bits but not files.

simplest solution : make lists of files and the compare the lists with any file compare tool.

 

> redirects output so instead of seeing on screen, the list of files gets written to filelist.txt

/S means browse through folders

/OG means order files and place folders in front of files

/B means bare format (list only filename and extension, and path if /S is selected )

 

dir c:\ /B /OG /S >C:\filelist.txt

- from dir documentation - 

  /A          Displays files with specified attributes.
  attributes   D  Directories                R  Read-only files
               H  Hidden files               A  Files ready for archiving
               S  System files               I  Not content indexed files
               L  Reparse Points             -  Prefix meaning not
  /B          Uses bare format (no heading information or summary).
  /C          Display the thousand separator in file sizes.  This is the
              default.  Use /-C to disable display of separator.
  /D          Same as wide but files are list sorted by column.
  /L          Uses lowercase.
  /N          New long list format where filenames are on the far right.
  /O          List by files in sorted order.
  sortorder    N  By name (alphabetic)       S  By size (smallest first)
               E  By extension (alphabetic)  D  By date/time (oldest first)
               G  Group directories first    -  Prefix to reverse order
  /P          Pauses after each screenful of information.
  /Q          Display the owner of the file.
  /R          Display alternate data streams of the file.
  /S          Displays files in specified directory and all subdirectories.
