Will memory modules from XPS M1710 work in Inspiron 8500?

I received a memory upgrade for my XPS M1710.  I would like to take the old 2 x 512 MB memory modules from my XPS 1710 and put them in my old Inspiron 8500 (which currently has 2 x 256 MB).  Will the memory modules be compatible?

Thanks!

No.  the 8500 uses DDR.  The 1710 uses DDR-2.  They're completely incompatible.
