Yep, I use rsync to sync files / directories between my desktop, laptop and even phone (Android). Also an external drive.
I ended up creating https://github.com/nickjj/bmsu which calls rsync under the hood but helps you build up a valid rsync command with no surprises. It also codifies each of you backup / restore strategies so you're not having to run massively long rsync commands each time.
Nothing leaves my local network since it's all local file transfers.
