Nope, you want a DDR2 - go to this link and it will tell you what to look for, but Kingston doesn't make a PC2 5300 .... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270?viewlocale=en_US&locale;=en_US#link7

Yes, it will. MacBook 5,1 Late 2008 (also known as MacBook 13" Aluminum Late 2008) definitely uses: PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM &gt;&gt; http://support.apple.com/kb/SP500 Apple Originally stated that MacBook 5,1 only supports 2x2GB (4GB total), but now acknowledges that 2x4GB works (8GB total) Watch out, many people confuse your aluminum "MacBook" with the different "MacBook Pro" when you inquire about parts

I bought this for an early 2008 Mac Pro (3,1?) and it works perfectly.. It doesn't show boot screen, but that isn't an issue for me.

I have the exact same laptop and it worked just fine. Just make sure to power down your Mac before changing out the memory. There are a number of great instructional videos on YouTube on how to remove the base and disconnect the battery prior to installing your memory. Very simple process.

No reason it shouldn't. Works on my Mac Pro (2008) 10.8 and Mac Mini (2012), and MacBook Pro (2011).

Yes, it will work. I've used it on my 2011 Macbook Pro as well as Windows computers. Works great on both.

It did not work with my 2008 MBP (pre-unibody). I tossed this in the trash as it was a cheap POC

I bought it for my MacBook model A1342 that's the late 2009 model, it's the white MacBook whith unibody... It worked perfectly on my computer so I think it should work on yours

I don't know about a MacBook but I have a Mac desktop system running OS 10.5 and have no problems with it. I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I am not sure, but I have a late 2008 Macbook. Pro and it worked great on mine. It is actually only used to remove the screws on the back of the computer. It is also important that you put the same screw back into the same place it came out of. Hope this helps.

It works fine in my late 2009 MacBook which is not a Pro. The site should tell you if your model works but I think it would. It does speed things up a bit.

Hello Sherman! I am using this with a 2007 MacBook without any issues. My (non-techy) understanding is that it will work at USB 3.0 speed/efficiency when plugged into an USB 3.0 port & it's backwards compatible with slower USB ports and will transfer data at those slower rates (up to max USB 3.0). I hope this helps...

I installed the 500 GB on a 2008 macbook. same size 2.5" Sata, 5400 rpm. It works great. Your model is a year newer than mine, it should work. Check the specifications of your comp Hd (u can google macbook 2009 specs) and make sure they match description of this HD. Hope this helps, changing hd is easy and if you're not sure how to do it, check youtube.
