Hi,
1. I have a MBP (early 2011) with 2x4GB memory modules. I was wondering if buying an 8GB RAM, could I use it together with one of the 4GB modules so there'd be 12GB RAM? Will it work?
2. IF the above installation were ok: should the MHz of the 4GB module match the Mhz of the 8GB module? Or it doesn't matter?
 
As long as you get the correct ram (same type as the 4gb), then yes, it'll work together as 12GB of ram
