You can just add it and it should work fine. Might be a bit slower or wonky after you hit 16gb and start running off only one stick, but you're doing that now anyways haha
Search this sub there's this question twice a week. But the answer is almost always get a set of Kingston fury. I think fury beast are the ones that are clones of that ram.
I'd personally go with 32gb if you're upgrading anyways, also not sure what speed of ram yours came with but those are the fairly generic ones.
