Question using different ddr3 memory stick?

[richard203]

hi my question is if i can use different ddr3 memory stick? I looked up the part number almost the same except the red one has a R at the end.
another question is can I just use 1 new ram since my other slot is damage so only 3 slot works? total i would have 24gb ram
