[DIY] Flooring Question

I am attempting putdown a new bamboo floor. At the store, the salesperson sold us an Eco Silent Sound HD Underlayment, to put under the floor.

When I removed my preexisting carpet, I realized I had a carpet pad underneath the carpet that is in very good condition.

My question is, can I just leave that carpet pad there and put the new floor over it, or should I use the Silent Sound Underlayment.

The carpet pad should prevent noise. Does it act as a moisture barrier?

I am just thinking it would be nice to save $120, and lessen the work, if the carpet pad is going to do the same thing.

Thanks for your help.

Frank
