Dell PowerEdge T440 5U Server

This 5U tower server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo, each providing 12 cores for a total of 24 cores. It includes 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across eight 32 GB modules and a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Express remote management complete the enterprise-ready platform.

Suits virtualisation, database

The sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays and dual 1 GbE ports support SAS, SATA and SSD media for flexible storage capacity. Buyers who need ready rails or a front bezel must source them separately. Organisations requiring higher core counts per socket, larger memory footprints beyond 1 TB, or integrated 10 GbE networking should evaluate alternative configurations.

PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache

The RAID controller determines which drive types and RAID levels are available, delivering 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with battery-backed write cache. It governs the storage performance and data-protection options for the sixteen drive bays, making it the critical component to verify against your workload requirements.

Questions about this item

What drive trays and bay count does the T440 include for 2.5-inch drives?

The server ships with four 2.5-inch drive trays and supports up to sixteen hot-swap bays for SAS, SATA, or SSD storage.

How are the Xeon Gold 5118 processors installed, and what common step is missed?

Two processors are pre-installed in LGA 3647 sockets; the step often missed is applying the correct torque sequence on the retention bracket before seating the heatsink.

What maintenance will the PERC H730P RAID controller battery require?

The 2 GB controller battery backs the write cache and will need replacement when iDRAC 9 reports a degraded or failed battery status.
