what size disk needed for backup?

Hi All,

I'm a license owner but rarely pop in, hoping to change that & actually use this software!

I have two mac mini's which I want to back up on regular basis.
I will refer to them as MM1 and MM2 ...

MM1 has a 500GB disk of which 160GB is used, MM2 has a 160GB disk of which only 13GB is being used.
With MM2, of the 160GB used, at least 55GB is crap and I wouldn't care if I lost it....

What size hard disk would I need to back these two up properly?

I'm hoping I can get away with using MM2's internal hdd as the backup volume.
So that I can use an external fw800 enclosure as the boot volume for MM2.

Cheers
