Compact 1U server for dense rack deployments

The Dell PowerEdge R440 is a 1U rackmount server built for space-efficient data centre environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. A total of 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory is installed across eight 32 GB modules.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing maximum drive

This configuration fits teams running virtualised workloads, application hosting or database tasks that benefit from eight front-accessible 2.5-inch drive slots. Buyers who need more than eight internal drives or who require a larger form factor for additional PCIe expansion should consider other chassis designs.

Eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives on a PERC H730P

Storage is provided by eight enterprise 600 GB 10K SAS drives connected to a Dell PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, and the drives are the primary factor in determining whether the available capacity and IOPS meet the workload.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 256GB DDR4-2400 kit or a smaller capacity for this R440?

The server arrives with 256GB across eight 32GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs, filling all slots. If your workload fits in less memory you would still need to remove modules, so the 256GB kit is the simplest starting point.

What does the 2.3GHz base and 3.2GHz turbo on the Xeon Gold 5118 mean for real workloads?

Each of the two 12-core Xeon Gold 5118 CPUs runs at 2.3GHz base and can reach 3.2GHz turbo when thermal headroom allows, giving 24 threads total for virtualization, databases or cloud tasks.

How fast can the PERC H730P controller move data with the 600GB SAS drives?

The H730P is a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID controller with 2GB cache and battery backup. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, so the eight 600GB 10K SAS drives can be grouped for throughput or redundancy up to the controller’s 12Gb/s link speed.
