Enterprise tower server
The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower system designed for virtualisation, database hosting and software-defined storage. Two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors provide 24 cores at 2.3 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The chassis accepts up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drives, though eight trays are included.
Sustained multi-core throughput
With 128 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory installed across four 32 GB modules, the platform maintains consistent performance during extended virtualisation workloads. Sixteen DIMM slots allow expansion to 1 TB for memory-intensive databases. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power under continuous load.
Rack-ready storage density
The PERC H330 controller manages SAS and SATA drives across the 16-bay backplane, supporting mixed SSD and HDD configurations. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 9 Express provide remote management without additional cards. Front bezel and rack rails are not included, so plan for separate mounting hardware if deploying in a standard rack.

Questions about this item
How much heat do the two Xeon Gold 5118 processors generate when the server runs continuously?
Each processor runs at 2.3GHz base with a 3.2GHz turbo frequency, and the system uses two redundant 750W platinum power supplies to handle the load.
What drives and cables must I supply to populate the eight included 2.5-inch trays?
The trays accept 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives; the PERC H330 controller provides 12Gb/s connectivity, so you need compatible drives and no additional cabling.
Can I keep using my existing DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory modules in the remaining slots?
The server has 16 DDR4 slots total; 128GB is already installed as 4x 32GB modules, leaving 12 slots open for identical DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs.
