I have a fairly simple question about dvd burners, but with a mac twist. I'm considering getting this burner:

but since I'm running on an older Apple G4 (533 Dual Processor "Digital Audio" to be precise), I'm wondering if the G4s Superdrive brackets will accomidate the burner without any need to jerry0rig it. Currently I have an old Pioneer DVR-104, and while the dimensions between that and the LiteOn I want are similar, they vary in some dimensions. I'm wondering if the size difference will mean the screwholes in the bracket and drive won't synch up. I know it's possible to upgrade burners on G4s, but size restraints is something I'm curious over. Thanks for any help.
tl;dr:
will this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827106988
fit in this: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g4/stats/powermac_g4_533.html
