Enterprise 5U Tower Server

The Dell EMC PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server designed for virtualization, database hosting, and business-critical workloads. It supports dual Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, each with 12 cores running at 2.3GHz and a 3.2GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64GB of DDR4-2400 ECC Registered memory across 16 slots, expandable to 1TB. A PERC H730P 2GB storage controller manages up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays for SAS and SATA drives. Dual 750W Platinum power supplies provide redundancy.

Suited For Scalable Workloads

This server suits IT teams deploying VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE virtualization clusters. It also fits SQL Server database hosting, file and print services, backup targets, and software-defined storage builds. The iDRAC 9 Express module enables remote lifecycle management. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets or require memory capacity beyond 1TB should evaluate larger platforms. Environments demanding front bezel or ready rails out of the box will need to source those accessories separately.

16-Bay 2.5-Inch Storage Capacity

The defining specification is the sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays paired with the PERC H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 modes. This bay count and controller combination determines how much local SAS or SATA storage the server can present to applications. If your storage plan exceeds sixteen drives or needs a different RAID feature set, this chassis will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

How do I install the two Xeon Gold 5118 processors into the LGA 3647 sockets without bending pins?

Align each processor using the socket keying notches, lower it vertically without force, and close the load plate before securing the lever; the pins are on the socket side, so never touch the contacts.

Which components will need replacement after several years of continuous operation?

The PERC H730P controller includes a battery-backed cache; that battery typically requires replacement every three to five years to maintain write-back caching protection.

At what point does the 750 W power supply limit expansion under sustained full load?

With two 750 W platinum units providing redundancy, the usable budget is 750 W; adding many drives, GPUs, or extra memory can exceed that limit before the second supply is stressed.
