Your machine Supports 1066 MHz PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM. Personally I like Kingston RAM for this machine.

It can take up to 8 GB of RAM. If you are going to upgrade go for the 8 GB. You can find it on tigerdirect.com or newegg.com and the upgrade is a pretty simple process.

Take a look at crucial memory on amazon. It is specifically made for macs. I have used it in many of my own machines with no problem. I would recommend upgrading to 8gb of ram. 4gb is the minimum now.
