    You should have 3 antenna the card with BT needs only 2
    You could also consider 1 usb BT adapter

    That card will work perfectly in there you'll just have to install the new drivers for it.

    Like 135 mentioned you will only be able to use 2 antenna so your range might drop a bit, probably nothing you'll notice unless you're often far away from the access point.

    He might not even need drivers, as the 6230 and 6300 both install with the same Intel driver package. It should be a simple swap for the new card.

    OP - Here's a link to the service manual for the laptop if you needed more detailed instructions on the swap: (thanks to Theriko)
