Your Mac uses unbuffered - non ecc - ddr 400 - pc3200 ram. Go to Crucial.com and use their Mempry Advisor Tool to select your machine. They'll list all the upgrades and there will be a link called "what does this mean" click that and you'll find all the answers. Even if you don't purchase ram from them it's a great site for reference.
