Purpose-built 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server configured with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz with 3.0GHz turbo, delivering 12 cores each. It includes 256GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across 16 slots and a PERC H330 controller managing four 1.92TB SATA SSDs in 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.

Fit for virtualisation hosts, not GPU farms

This configuration suits organisations deploying VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE clusters, database workloads or software-defined storage where dual-socket CPU performance and redundant 750W power are required. Buyers needing integrated GPU compute, higher-speed networking or more than sixteen drive bays should evaluate alternative configurations.

Dual Xeon Silver 4116 CPUs

The installed processors are the decisive specification: two Silver 4116 CPUs at 2.1GHz with 12 cores each, LGA 3647 socket, and a maximum of two sockets supported. This defines the compute ceiling for licensing, threading and memory channel population in this chassis.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 256 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The system ships with 256 GB using eight 32 GB DDR4-2400 modules across 16 slots, leaving eight slots free to reach the 1 TB maximum.

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 runs at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz, giving 24 total cores for multi-threaded tasks such as virtualization or databases.

How does the PERC H330 controller limit the four 1.92 TB SATA SSDs?

The H330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity, so the 6 Gb/s SATA SSDs operate at their native interface speed without controller bottleneck.
