The hard drive should install and format just fine. However, if you're looking to use the pre-installed Mac OS X and software from the newer MacBook Pro on the older MacBook, it probably won't work well, if at all.

If your MacBook has an SD Card Reader, plug the card into it. It should appear on the desktop as a hard drive, probably called 'unnamed.' Drag files from the SD card to the hard drive. If your Macbook lacks an SD Card Slot, get an adapter or other device such as a printer with an SD Card Slot that will plug in to the MacBook. Plug that device into the MacBook, and proceed as before when the SD card appears on the desktop.
