Product identity

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3GHz with 3.9GHz turbo. It ships with 64GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four modules and a PERC H330 storage controller. Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive trays and dual 750W platinum power supplies complete the chassis.

Suitability

This server suits organisations deploying virtualization hosts, database workloads, or file storage where dual-socket compute density and up to sixteen drive bays are required. The 16 DDR4 slots allow expansion to 1TB memory. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets or storage protocols beyond SAS and SATA should evaluate other platforms.

Deciding specification

The installed PERC H330 controller provides 12Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity for the sixteen 2.5-inch bays. This determines which drive types can be used and the maximum array configuration without adding a different RAID card.

Questions about this item

Will the 16-core Xeon Gold 5218 CPUs at 2.3 GHz work with my existing DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory modules?

Yes, the installed 64GB consists of 4x 16GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs, so your matching modules will run at the supported 2400 MT/s speed across the 16 available slots.

How can I verify the PERC H330 controller sees all sixteen 2.5-inch drive bays after installation?

During POST the H330 BIOS will list each attached SAS or SATA drive; you can also open the iDRAC 9 Express web interface and check the Storage overview for all 16 bays.

Which items ship with the server and which must be purchased separately?

The box includes the 5U chassis, 2x Xeon Gold 5218 processors, 64GB DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs, H330 controller, 16x 2.5-inch hot-swap trays, dual 1GbE ports, iDRAC 9 Express, and 2x 750W platinum PSUs; drives, front bezel, and rack rails are not included.
