Capacity and role

This new Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server with sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays. Two Intel Xeon Gold 5120 processors run at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo across 14 cores each. The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory in eight 32 GB modules.

Fit and gaps

It suits teams building virtualization hosts, database servers or software-defined storage clusters that need dense 2.5-inch storage and dual-socket compute. Buyers who require installed drives, a front bezel or ready rails must source those separately. Organisations needing GPU-accelerated workloads should verify PCIe slot availability before purchase.

Deciding spec

The Dell PERC HBA330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA storage controller defines which drive types can be used in the sixteen bays. It presents disks directly to the operating system without hardware RAID, so the choice of SAS, SATA or SSD media depends on this controller.

Questions about this item

What 2.5-inch drive trays or caddies must I already have to populate the sixteen hot-swap bays?

The server includes four Dell EMC 13G 2.5-inch drive trays; you will need twelve additional trays to fill all sixteen bays.

Can my existing SAS or SATA drives connect to the installed PERC HBA330 controller?

Yes, the PERC HBA330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supports both SAS and SATA drives, so your current SAS or SATA drives will work directly.

How do I verify the iDRAC 9 Express remote management is operating correctly after setup?

Access the iDRAC web interface using its network address; a successful login and visible system inventory confirm it is working as intended.
