What RAM should I get?

To get this laptop up to speed, I'd need to pick up some RAM that looks exactly like what you see in this photo here.
I'm honestly not entirely sure which specific type it is—or even what the technical name for it might be, if I'm being honest.

I honestly have no clue what kind of thing this is, let alone what you'd even call it.

It’s a PC3L-12800S.

I’m actually looking for some clarification on what exactly "DDR" refers to... because when I look online, I see everything from DDR2 and DDR3 to DDR4 and DDR5 listed for sale.
