Question about adding Fusion Drive to a 2008 Black Macbook

[KBS756]

Question is a Fusion Drive Possible on a 2008 Macbook? My Friend has a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo Macbook with 2 GB Ram. He wants to upgrade it to last him for some more time while he saves up for something like a Retina 13 Pro.

So basically wondering if I can take the DVD Drive out and make a Fusion Drive that will work with the Macbook?

120 GB SSD + 750 GB Laptop HDD + Optibay (So I can Put HDD in DVD Drive Slot)

I realize it wont use full speed because the old Macbook wont support SATA 3 Speeds.

Also going to add 4 GB RAM to speed it up.

So is there a way to add Apple's Fusion Drive to an old Macbook using 2 Drives? So it would self optimize for my friend and show up as 1 partition not 2 drives.

Does anyone know if this is possible and how I would go about doing this?

If the machine can run 10.8.3, yes.

Those machines can't run Mountain Lion, and don't have two SATA ports. The optical drive is PATA, so you're out of luck.
