Syncing Macbook with Hard Drive

Hi,

I have a Macbook (black) and a 1tb WD mac hard drive.

The hard drive is brand new and empty.

I want to sync all my files including photos, music, documents etc from my macbook to the hard drive. And be able to do this regularly.

I download a lot of music and movies and want to not have to keep adding it to my hard drive manually as it's frustrating. Also I would like the hard drive to sync to the macbook too if there is music on there that my macbook doesn't have.

When I first got the macbook I'm pretty sure it had something installed on it enabling me to do this but as I wasn't paying attention; not only can I not find it but I can't even remember what it was called and if it was a function on the macbook or if it was a programme I have installed on here.

Can anyone help please? Thanks!

You should find the application called TimeMachine in your preferences. It will take or everything automatically for you. Very good idea to backup btw.
