DELL PowerEdge R440 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 5118 2.3GHz 12-core 256GB DDR4 8x 1.8TB SAS HBA330 2x 550W
A 1U rack server with dual 12-core Xeon Gold 5118 processors at 2.3 GHz, 256 GB DDR4 ECC memory, eight 1.8 TB SAS drives on an HBA330 controller, and dual 550 W power supplies
- 24 Xeon Gold cores at 2.3 GHz power dense virtualization workloads
- 256 GB DDR4 ECC memory ensures reliable operation for critical applications
- Eight 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives deliver high-capacity enterprise storage
- HBA330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity for flexible drive configuration
- Dual 550 W platinum supplies add redundancy for continuous uptime
Compact 1U rack server for dense deployments
The Dell PowerEdge R440 is a 1U rackmount server built for space-efficient data center deployment. It suits organisations running virtualization, cloud, database and application hosting workloads that demand high rack density. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors provide enterprise computing performance in a compact form factor.
Storage controller and drives set capacity and speed
A Dell PERC HBA330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA storage controller manages eight 1.8TB 10K SAS 2.5" hard drives. This combination delivers the total raw storage and I/O throughput available to the operating system. The HBA330 presents drives directly without hardware RAID abstraction, so software-defined storage or OS-level redundancy determines data protection.
Dual 12-core Xeon Gold 5118 CPUs define compute
Two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors run at 2.3GHz base with 3.2GHz turbo across 12 cores each. This 24-core total is the fixed processing ceiling for every workload on the system. Buyers who need more cores, higher clocks or newer instruction sets must select a different server platform.

Questions about this item
What maintenance or replacement will the eight 1.8TB SAS hard drives need later?
Enterprise 10K SAS drives are rated for continuous operation; plan to replace any drive that exceeds its rated workload limit or shows SMART errors during iDRAC monitoring.
Which limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 5118 processors run at 3.2GHz turbo under sustained load?
The 550W platinum power supplies set the thermal and power ceiling before the 12-core CPUs reach their maximum turbo frequency for extended periods.
How much noise and heat do the dual 550W power supplies produce when the server runs all day?
Platinum-efficiency 550W units reduce waste heat; the 1U chassis fans ramp to maintain safe inlet temperatures, producing noticeable but data-center-typical acoustic levels.
