Will DDR2 PC2-6400 ram work?

I just took out 2 gigs of DDR2 PC2-6400 ram out of my Dell Precision M4400 laptop and put in 4 gigs, I was wondering if that 6400 work in my wifes Dell Inspirion 6000 which has 1 gig of DDR2 PC-5300 ram, they both work at 1.8 volts? I think the 6400 will just down clock to 5300 speeds, anyone with any ideas? Thanks in advance...

I should work fine and at 5300 speeds as long as the chipset supports high a density modules.
