Thanks so much. I had been told by one supplier that since I have SATA I, not SATA II, that even if I put in a larger amount of GB that it would only support 120 GB

The largest drive that I know of for your MacBook is a 750 GB. You need to stay with 9 mm drives, the 12.5 mm will not fit in your machine. Here's one that iFixit offers:
