Time Machine is built-in and free to use. You need to provide a suitable external disk and a good one can be had for around $100 or less. Keep in mind that for TM a disk of about 3X the amount of data you are backing up will be needed, as it will grow over time. The disk needs to be formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
