Can I replace my Optical Drive with a Hard Drive Enclosure

MacBook 13" 2.13 GHz (Mid 2009)

Hi folks

I was wonderign whether I can take out my Optical Drive and add a second hard drive. As far as it seems I cannot use the 9.5 mm PATA Optical Bay SATA Hard Drive Enclosure as the MacBook 13" 2.13 GHz (Mid 2009) already features a SATA connector. Is that right? Add which enclosure should I get?

But MacBook 13" 2.13 GHz (Mid 2009) is not unibody (but I can use the guide for the non unibody macbooks), as long as the enclosure fits
