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 3.9 GHz turbo, delivering 16 cores each. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four modules. A PERC HBA330 storage controller manages up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays with four trays provided.

Suited for virtualisation and storage workloads

This server fits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation, database hosting, file services or software-defined storage. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Express remote management support business-critical uptime. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or larger memory capacity from day one should evaluate other platforms. The tower chassis also requires rack rails for cabinet mounting.

PERC HBA330 controller with 16-bay backplane

The installed Dell PERC HBA330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity to the sixteen 2.5-inch drive bays. Four drive trays are included so you can populate storage immediately. This controller operates in HBA mode without hardware RAID, so administrators planning hardware RAID arrays will need a different PERC model. The backplane supports SAS, SATA and SSD media for flexible deployment.

Questions about this item

What does the HBA330 controller limit drive throughput to?

The HBA330 runs at 12Gb/s SAS and SATA so each attached drive is capped at that link speed

What physical space and rails are required to mount the 5U chassis?

The server occupies 5U of rack height; ready rails are not included so you must supply compatible sliding rails

How are the Xeon Gold 5218 processors installed and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs drop into LGA 3647 sockets with a torque-limited screwdriver; the common mistake is skipping the thermal-paste application before locking the heat sinks
