DELL PowerEdge R440 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 5118 2.3GHz 12-core 128GB DDR4 H730P 4x 3.5" fillers 2x 550W

Dense 1U server for virtualisation workloads

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R440 is a compact 1U rack server built for dense data centre deployments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, each offering 12 cores at a 2.3 GHz base clock and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. A total of 128 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory is installed across eight 16 GB modules. The PERC H730P controller provides 2 GB cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible storage arrays.

Sustained multi-threaded throughput under load

With twenty-four combined cores the system maintains high throughput during extended virtualisation, database or cloud tasks. The DDR4-2400 ECC memory subsystem delivers consistent bandwidth while correcting single-bit errors without interruption. The H730P controller sustains mixed read and write streams across SAS or SATA drives thanks to its battery-backed cache. Dual 1 GbE ports handle steady network traffic without saturating the PCIe bus.

Platinum power supplies and remote management

Two 550 W platinum-efficiency power supplies share the load and provide redundancy during normal operation. Integrated iDRAC 9 Express enables remote monitoring, firmware updates and power control without physical access. The 1U chassis uses front-to-rear airflow to keep component temperatures stable in standard rack cabinets. Four 3.5-inch drive bay fillers are included to maintain proper airflow when bays are empty.
