I'm not saying that the one you linked to is wrong, I just took a gander at the picture and I know the internal layout of the pre-unibodies and the unibodies is different, that's all.
A quick search for 'macbook pro caddy pata' turns up this, which looks to be the right thing for $14

Re: exact type of SSD, I don't have any special info but when I did my own looking I narrowed it to samsung 830, OWC, or Crucial m4. Ended up picking m4 based on price, but the difference vs. OWC was larger at that time.
You are awesome! That's a fantastic link. Looking around at SSDs now, thanks to some great pointers from you and Bazookaman.
Any more advice from the crowd? Things to look for or avoid in SSD selection? My impulse is to buy as much storage as i can afford, because it's astonishingly easy to use up space. Then again, i'll still have the 750GB drive for storage...
