DELL PowerEdge T440 5U rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4210 2.2GHz 10-core 16GB DDR4 HBA330 2x 750W PSU

Enterprise 5U Server for Virtualisation & Storage

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors, each delivering 10 cores at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory and a PERC HBA330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller provide a foundation for virtualisation, database hosting, file storage and software-defined storage workloads. Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies and iDRAC 9 Express remote management support continuous operation.

Upgrading from Single-Socket or Lower-Core Platforms

Moving from a single-processor server or a system with fewer than 10 cores per CPU adds the parallel throughput needed for heavier VM densities and multi-threaded database queries. The jump is worth it when your current host saturates CPU resources or when you need the 16 DIMM slots to scale memory toward the 1 TB maximum. Four included 2.5-inch drive trays and sixteen hot-swap bays also replace smaller direct-attached storage arrays.

Verify Rack Space, Power & Memory Compatibility

Confirm that your rack can accommodate a 5U chassis and that the facility provides the appropriate power connections for dual 750 W supplies. The server ships without a front bezel or ready rails, so plan for mounting hardware. Memory upgrades must use DDR4-2400 ECC registered modules to match the installed 16 GB configuration and the 16 available slots.
