Hello friends! I have a Polycarbonate MacBook from the year 2007 and I am using it again. My question is:
-How much RAM can it handle (I am using 4GB but I want to use 8)
-Can it handle SSD (I want to put SSD inside of it, can it happen)
-Is there a way to get macOS Yosemite on it?
Thanks in advance!

If it's the Early-2007 model, then 3GBs is the maximum RAM. If it's the Late-2007 model, then it can handle 6GBs of RAM. It can accept an old SSD that supports 1.5Bbps SATA. Some SSD models may be downward compatible but check carefully before buying one.
The maximum supported version of OS X is Lion 10.7.5. You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
