This is a FreeBSD list, so any issues rsync may have with MacOS X are not very relevant to what FreeBSD is doing or would do. Having said that though, can you try without the -u option? Maybe modification times are newer on the target drive and rsync skips everything. You should probably also enable --stats and have a look at the final report of rsync, to see if it actually sync'ed any files, or skipped all of them because of mtime checks.
