I have acquired an IBM hard drive model DTTA-350640 (6GB ATA) which was
built in 1998.

It was 'designed and manufactured to Apple specifications'.
The IBM HDD site says its a Deskstar 16GP.

The power and ribbon cable connections are physically the same as PC
compatible ATA hard drives.

Can it be safely used in a PC?
 
It shouldn't be a problem at all. ATA drive means just that.

since it appears that the ata drive from apple can be used in pc how
about the reverse using ata hd in apple g3 power mac ??
