Enterprise 5U Tower Server with Dual Xeon Gold 5218

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server that supports conversion to rack mounting. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency and 16 cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across 16 slots, with capacity for up to 1 TB total.

Suited for virtualization, databases.

This configuration fits VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, and Proxmox VE virtualization, as well as SQL Server, file services, backup, and software-defined storage. Buyers who require more than two processors or more than 1 TB of memory should evaluate alternative platforms. The integrated PERC H330 controller manages SAS and SATA drives only.

Dual 750 W platinum redundant power supplies

Two hot-swap 750 watt platinum-rated power supplies provide redundant power for continuous operation. The server offers sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays, though only eight drive trays are included. iDRAC 9 Express enables remote management and lifecycle control.

Questions about this item

How many memory slots remain free for future upgrades?

Eight of the sixteen DDR4 slots are still available for expansion beyond the installed 256GB.

Which component reaches its maximum capacity first under sustained heavy workloads?

The two Xeon Gold 5218 processors are already at the system limit of two CPUs, so compute scaling stops here.

What is the typical power draw of the dual 750W Platinum supplies when the server runs continuously?

Each 750W Platinum supply operates at high efficiency, and the redundant pair shares the load during all-day operation.
