Dell PowerEdge T440 5U Server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3GHz with a 3.9GHz turbo frequency. It includes 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across sixteen slots and a PERC H730P storage controller with 2GB cache. Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive trays and dual 750W redundant power supplies complete the chassis.

Virtualisation and database workloads

This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation clusters, Microsoft SQL Server databases or software-defined storage on SAS and SATA media. The dual-socket design and sixteen drive bays support demanding multi-threaded applications. Buyers who need more than two processors or require installed drives should look at other configurations.

PERC H730P RAID controller

The Dell PERC H730P 2GB controller provides hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode over a 12Gb/s SAS and SATA interface. This specification determines which drive types and redundancy levels are supported. iDRAC 9 Express enables remote management for deployment and monitoring.

Questions about this item

What storage drives and controller do I need to use the 16 2.5-inch bays?

The 16 front bays accept 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives. The installed PERC H730P 2GB controller manages those drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.

Can I keep my existing DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory when upgrading this server?

Yes. The system uses DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs across 16 slots and currently has 16 GB installed, so compatible modules can be added up to 1 TB.

How do I confirm the PERC H730P controller is operating correctly after installation?

During boot, watch for the H730P BIOS prompt showing firmware version and detected drives. Then log into iDRAC 9 Express to verify controller health, battery status and virtual disk state.
