how to make a backup to my mac pro?

You want to make a backup of your system on your Macbook Pro?

Purchase an external hard drive and use the built in Time Machine application to make backups. Or, if you want a bootable clone, use SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner to do those.

Buy 2 drives so you have 2 backups. Hard drives do fail.
