I'm looking to upgrade my RAM in my MacBook Pro (early 2011, sandy bridge 2.3ghz i5); my question is, can i mix and match?

 

I'm fairly new with MacBooks, so the only compatibility requirement i know of is it has to be 1333MHz. So, my current RAM is 2GB x 2GB. I was wondering if i could install an 8GB module and keep one of the 2GB modules, instead of losing 2GBs by going 4GB x 4GB. 

Also, does anyone know if this module would be compatible: CLICK ME :D

Currys is the only store that actually sells RAM in my area, and that is the only one they have... Saves me waiting for some to be delivered off the internet. 

 

So yeah, could i do 8GB x 2GB and gain 10GBs? (Might be different models of RAM...) Thanks in advance!
