I recently put in a Samsung Spinpoint 1TB 5400rpm drive in mine. It performs noticeably slower compared to before. Buy an SSD and you'll blow your own mind.
And as far as RAM, make sure it's compatible. I just bought 2x2gb of the right model of Konputerbay that didn't explicitly state compatibility with my MacBook and, lo and behold, it didn't register. They're particular about what kind of RAM it takes. Google "RAM for MacBook (model number)" and you'll find what you need with a short list of suggestions. Don't deviate from that list, even if you think you know what you're doing.

Just go to Crucial.com and use their RAM selector.
