How do I know which memory my computer takes?

Match the generation (DDR3, DDR4 or DDR5), the form (SODIMM for laptops, DIMM for desktops and servers) and, for a server, whether it takes registered or unbuffered modules. The label on a module already in the machine shows all three, and its part number is the surest match.

Can I mix memory modules of different sizes or speeds?

Usually yes, within the same generation and type, but every module then runs at the speed of the slowest one, and some machines need matched pairs to run in dual-channel mode. Servers are stricter: never mix registered and unbuffered modules, and follow the server's memory population guide.
