The connectors are different, because the PowerBook G3 have TWO Expansion Bays. One for the battery and the other for a CD-Rom (or CD-RW), a DVD Rom (or DVD-RW), a Zip, a second Hard drive, a second Battery, a Floppy, etc. So you can put two batteries at the same time (one on each Bay) so the PowerBook G3 will work for 10 HOURS !! That's why you can't use a "G3" drive on a G4 (there are enclosures to connect the drives as FireWire devices) as internal drives.
