Here is a script that was written for me that does the following:

For archival purposes on a feature film I was working on.
- saves all media from a specified drive (specified in the beginning of the script) to the project folder.
- you can add exceptions to the beginning of the script for file types you want to ignore.
- files that are being copied to the project directory that already exist get renamed with a (1) or (2), etc at the end of the filename.

This is great if you've been working on a large project and have files from all over the place and want to save off the whole project to a new drive and make sure all the media follows it. It also relinks the media after copying it to the new location.

enjoy.
