If the 6500 has an ata cd, it can be used in the same spot as the present one in the G3 without any hassles. You can tell if it is ata by the width of the ribbon connector. If it fits the ribbon that goes to the present cd player, then it should be an easy deal, just make sure the master/slave jumpers are the same on the new one as the old one. -- All the Best,
