5U rack server with dual Xeon Silver 4116

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rackmount server fitted with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz with a 3.0GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 12 cores for a total of 24 cores across the system. Memory capacity is 256GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs installed across 8 slots, with room to expand to 1TB across 16 slots total.

Virtualisation and database hosts needing dense

This configuration suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE clusters that benefit from sixteen hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays and four pre-installed 960GB SATA SSDs connected through the HBA330 controller. Buyers who require integrated hardware RAID, GPU acceleration, or a tower form factor without a separate conversion kit should evaluate alternative platforms.

HBA330 controller provides JBOD passthrough only

The Dell PERC HBA330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA storage controller operates in HBA mode, presenting drives directly to the operating system without hardware RAID functionality. Software-defined storage stacks such as vSAN or Ceph can manage redundancy at the application layer, while workloads needing dedicated RAID offload will require a different controller card.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with drives and rails already installed?

The unit includes four 960 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC HBA330 controller; the front bezel and ready rails are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I select the 256 GB configuration or plan to add more DDR4 modules later?

256 GB is provided as eight 32 GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs occupying eight of the sixteen slots, leaving eight free slots for expansion up to 1 TB.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock with 3.0 GHz turbo mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two Xeon Silver 4116 processors has 12 cores running at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz, giving 24 total cores for virtualization, databases or file services.
