Engineered for virtualisation and database workloads
The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server built for enterprise virtualisation, database hosting and software-defined storage. Dual Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors deliver twenty-four cores at 2.3 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo for multi-threaded throughput. iDRAC 9 Express provides out-of-band remote management for lights-out administration.
PERC H730P 2GB controller defines storage
The installed Dell PERC H730P RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode across twelve-gigabit SAS and SATA links. Its two-gigabyte cache with battery backup protects write performance and data integrity during power loss. Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays accept SAS, SATA and SSD media for mixed workload tuning.
Sixteen DIMM slots scale to one terabyte DDR4
Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory ship in two eight-gigabyte modules, leaving fourteen slots open for expansion. The platform supports up to one terabyte of DDR4 for large in-memory databases and dense virtualisation. Dual 750-watt platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation.

Questions about this item
What does the 2.3 GHz base speed of the two Xeon Gold 5118 processors mean for real workloads?
Each of the two installed Xeon Gold 5118 CPUs runs at 2.3 GHz base with a 3.2 GHz turbo, providing 24 total cores for multi-threaded tasks such as virtualization or database hosting.
How does the PERC H730P controller limit drive throughput?
The PERC H730P is a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller, so connected drives are capped at that interface speed and supported RAID levels include 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60.
What physical space and rails are required to mount this 5U tower in a rack?
The server occupies 5U of rack height; a separate rack conversion kit is needed because ready rails and the front bezel are not included.
