5U Tower Server with 16 Hot-Swap Bays

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server that supports up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz with 3.0GHz Turbo across twelve cores each. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory and a PERC HBA330 storage controller.

Suited for Virtualisation and Storage Workloads

This configuration fits organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation, database hosting, file services or software-defined storage. Buyers who need a hardware RAID controller with cache or more than two processor sockets should consider a different platform.

Dual Xeon Silver 4116 at 2.1GHz Base Clock

The installed CPUs provide twenty-four total cores at a 2.1GHz base frequency with 3.0GHz Turbo capability. The LGA 3647 socket and maximum two-processor limit mean this server cannot scale beyond the current dual-socket configuration.

Questions about this item

How much power do the two 750W platinum PSUs draw when the dual Xeon Silver 4116 CPUs and 128GB DDR4 run continuously?

Each supply is rated at 750 watts with platinum efficiency; actual draw depends on workload but the redundant pair shares the load for the 2.1GHz 12-core processors and memory.

Which rails or rack kit are required to mount this 5U tower in a standard cabinet?

The front bezel and ready rails are not included; a Dell rack conversion kit must be purchased separately for 5U rack installation.

Can the PERC HBA330 controller use the existing 960GB SATA SSDs in a RAID array with older SAS drives?

The HBA330 supports 12Gb/s SAS and SATA, so the installed 960GB SATA SSDs can be combined with legacy SAS disks in the same 16-bay chassis.
