Enterprise 5U server with dual Xeon Silver 4116

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo. Each CPU provides 12 cores for a total of 24 cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4‑2400 ECC registered memory across eight 32 GB modules and a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass‑through.

Suited for virtualization hosts

This configuration fits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper‑V or Proxmox VE clusters, as well as Microsoft SQL Server and general business‑application hosting. The sixteen 2.5‑inch hot‑swap bays accept SAS and SATA drives for high‑capacity storage arrays. Buyers who need GPU‑accelerated compute or more than two processor sockets should evaluate other platforms.

Dual 750 W platinum redundant power supplies

The server ships with two hot‑swap 750 W platinum‑efficiency power supplies providing full redundancy. Integrated dual‑port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 9 Express remote management are included. Note that front bezel and ready rails are not supplied, and no drives are installed in the four included trays.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive-bay configuration does the 5U PowerEdge T440 need for installation?

The chassis is a 5U tower that accepts an optional rack conversion kit; it provides 16 front 2.5-inch hot-swap bays for SAS or SATA drives.

How are the two Xeon Silver 4116 processors and the 256GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both LGA 3647 sockets are already populated with the 12-core 2.1GHz CPUs; the 256GB ships as 8x 32GB DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs filling half the 16 slots — verify each module clicks fully into its slot.

Which components in the T440 will need replacement over time, and what are the part specifics?

The PERC H730P 2GB RAID controller uses a replaceable battery for cache backup; the two 750W platinum hot-swap PSUs and any of the 16 hot-swap drives can be swapped without downtime.
