Strange Memory Compatibility Question

[BigOrangeSU]

Hi-
I have a macbook unibody that I bought in January of 2009. I am pretty sure the macbook is a late 2008 model, because I don't have the built in battery. According to Apple's site, my computer takes DDR2 PC2-5300.

But, the current memory (stock) that is in it is DDR3 running at 1067. What kind of memory is compatible with my macbook? I want to buy 4gb (2x2gb) of the best kind, guessing preferably any listed here:

So whats the deal? Thanks!

You need to use DDR3 1066MHz SO-DIMM 204 Pin PC3-8500 memory. I enjoy the peace of mind in dealing with OWC. Their products are tested and guaranteed. They also have instructional videos on their site to help make the project a success.
