DELL PowerEdge T440 5U Server

The DELL PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack-mount server system built for enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3GHz with 3.9GHz turbo capability. The system includes 32GB of DDR4 memory and a Dell PERC HBA330 storage controller. Sixteen 2.5-inch drive trays provide high-density storage capacity.

Ideal for virtualisation and databases

This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE virtualisation platforms. It supports SQL Server, file services, backup targets, and software-defined storage deployments. Buyers needing tower orientation without a conversion kit should look elsewhere. Those requiring pre-installed drives or GPU compute accelerators must add them separately.

Dual Xeon Gold 5218 16-core CPUs

The installed processors deliver 16 cores each at 2.3GHz base frequency with 3.9GHz turbo boost. This configuration is fixed at the maximum of two processors for this model. Memory capacity can expand to 1TB across sixteen DDR4 slots. The HBA330 controller manages SAS and SATA drives through twelve gigabit per second connectivity.

Questions about this item

What clearance and rails are required to install the 5U T440 chassis in a standard rack?

The T440 is a 5U tower server; an optional rack conversion kit is needed for rack mounting. Ready Rails are not included, so you must supply compatible rails and 5U of vertical space.

Which drive trays and controller cables are needed to populate the 16 front bays with 2.5" SAS or SATA drives?

The chassis includes sixteen 2.5" hot-swap trays. Drives connect to the PERC HBA330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller; use the supplied tray sleds and ensure the controller cables are seated before powering on.

What memory modules and power supply units can be used to expand the 32GB DDR4 configuration and maintain redundant power?

Install DDR4-2400 ECC Registered DIMMs up to the 1TB limit across 16 slots. For power redundancy, add or replace with Dell 750 Watt Platinum hot-plug PSUs matching the two already installed.
