Dual Xeon Gold 5118 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo. Each CPU provides twelve cores for a total of twenty-four cores. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory are installed across two modules. The system targets virtualization, database hosting and file storage workloads.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your rack provides a 5U bay and that the 2.5-inch drive carriers match the sixteen front bays. The PERC H730P controller uses SATA and SAS interfaces; confirm your additional drives use those protocols. Two 750 W platinum power supplies are installed and support hot-swap redundancy. The front bezel and ready rails are not included with this unit.

Thermals noise and power draw

Dual 750 W platinum supplies share the load and allow one unit to fail without downtime. Redundant hot-swap power keeps the server running during a module replacement. The tower chassis uses forced-air cooling sized for the dual-processor configuration. Acoustic output will reflect a dual-CPU 5U platform under typical enterprise workloads.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell PowerEdge T440 include the 2.5-inch drives and front bezel shown in photos, or must they be purchased separately?

The server comes with four 960 GB SATA solid-state drives installed in the 2.5-inch hot-swap bays. The front bezel and ready rails are not included and must be sourced separately.

Should I choose the dual Gold 5118 configuration or a single-processor version for virtualization workloads?

This unit already has two Gold 5118 processors installed, giving 24 total cores at 2.3 GHz base and 3.2 GHz turbo. The socket count is maxed at two, so no single-processor variant of this exact build exists.

What does the 2.3 GHz base clock mean when the T440 is running a live database under load?

With both Gold 5118 CPUs active, all 24 cores can sustain 2.3 GHz continuously, and turbo can lift individual cores to 3.2 GHz depending on thermal headroom and the workload thread count.
