Dell PowerEdge T440 5U Server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server that supports optional rack conversion. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H330 storage controller with eight 2.5-inch drive trays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power.

Suits virtualization and storage-heavy workloads

This configuration suits organizations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE clusters that need dense 2.5-inch drive capacity. It also fits database hosting, backup targets, and software-defined storage deployments. Buyers who require pre-installed drives, a front bezel, or ready rails should look elsewhere as those items are not included. The maximum processor count of two is already populated.

16-bay 2.5-inch chassis with H330 controller

The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays while eight trays are included for immediate use. The PERC H330 handles 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA devices for RAID or JBOD configurations. Memory scales to 1 TB across sixteen DDR4 slots using registered ECC modules. Two 1 GbE ports and iDRAC 9 Express handle management and network connectivity.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Xeon Gold 5218 processors into the LGA 3647 sockets?

Align the processor notches with the socket keys, lower the CPU gently, close the load plate, and torque the retention screws in a cross pattern to the specified value; the step often missed is uneven tightening that can bend the socket pins.

What maintenance will the H330 storage controller and its battery-backed cache require later?

The PERC H330 uses a lithium-ion battery for cache protection; plan to replace that battery module every three to five years or when iDRAC 9 Express reports a degradation alert.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 5218 CPUs run at 3.9GHz Turbo under sustained load?

The 750W platinum power supplies set the first ceiling; if combined draw exceeds their rated output the system will throttle before the CPU thermal junction maximum is reached.
