Dual Xeon Silver 4116 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 12 cores each. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four modules and a PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 2.5-inch hot-swap drive trays, dual gigabit Ethernet, iDRAC 9 Express and two 750 W platinum power supplies complete the platform.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This server suits teams running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox clusters that need up to 16 drive bays and redundant power in a 5U form factor. It also fits Windows Server or Linux deployments for SQL databases, file services, backup targets or software-defined storage. Buyers who require more than two sockets or integrated ten-gigabit networking should look elsewhere.

PERC H730P RAID controller

The installed PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache decides which drive types and RAID levels are available. It manages SAS and SATA drives in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 or pass-through mode. Verify that your storage plan matches these RAID options and the eight 2.5-inch tray limit before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Should I pick a single-processor or dual-processor configuration for the T440?

This unit ships with two Xeon Silver 4116 processors already installed, and the board supports a maximum of two, so no further CPU upgrade is possible.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock with 3.0 GHz turbo mean for actual workloads?

Each of the 24 total cores runs at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz when thermal headroom allows, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization and databases.

Which RAID levels does the PERC H730P controller support on the 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA backplane?

The H730P 2 GB controller handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode across the sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.
