DELL PowerEdge T440 5U rack server 2× Xeon Silver 4214 2.2GHz 12-core 16GB DDR4 H730P

Server Configuration

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server supplied with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency and twelve cores. It includes 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across sixteen slots and a PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power.

Suitable Workloads

This system suits organisations deploying virtualisation platforms such as VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox, as well as database hosting, file services, backup targets and software-defined storage. The sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays and dual 1 GbE ports support high-density storage and baseline connectivity. Buyers who require GPU compute density, higher single-thread clock speeds, or more than two processor sockets should evaluate alternative platforms.

Decisive Specification

The PERC H730P controller operates at 12 Gb/s over SAS and SATA interfaces and includes a battery-backed 2 GB cache. It determines which drive types can be used and which RAID levels are available. Confirm that your storage plan matches SAS or SATA media and the supported RAID modes before purchase.
