Am I able to run the previous gens ram, 1333mhz?

Bought an 8gb stick of ram for an old mini that ended up getting sold. Never got to test if it works and lost the receipt. Just needed to test it before putting it on eBay.

Did you ever test the 1333 in the new(est) Mini?

If you are upgrading memory in the new Mac Mini with memory from Crucial (say the 16GB option), does that mean you are simply throwing away the 4GB (2x2GB) of memory that came pre-installed? What other use might there be for the stock memory that will get pulled out?

I'd keep it in case the memory goes bad. You can at least use the computerized something goes wrong.
 
so just got a mini 6.1 what is the consensus on the 16 gig memory upgrades? any failed by now or over heat or anything yet?

what is the best for the buck and quickest for the 16 gg?
