New HDD for MacBook Late '08

[Lumio]

Hey, I have a MacBook Late '08 and thought about to bye a new HD... 500G
Does my MacBook allow such a high size? Can I use it?
What about this one (german) http://geizhals.at/a388980.html
Seagate Momentus 7200.4 G-Force 500GB, SATA II • 7200rpm • 16MB Cache • 11ms • G-Force Protection for less than 100 euros

The Seagate Momentus 7200.4 is fine but I'd get the one without the G-Force protection because your MacBook already has SMS (sudden motion sensor) built in and the 2 protections have been known to cause conflicts if used together.

Taken from an article that I Googled:

Note that there are two versions of the Momentus 7200.4; one of them has “G-force protection” (ST9500420ASG). Mac laptops already have this feature built-in, so it’s not necessary to get the “G” version, the regular one (ST9500420AS) is just fine.

Okay, I think, that is this one: http://geizhals.at/a388978.html

That appears to be the one according to the model number. The rest of the information is auf Deutsch and I'm a little rusty.
