Enterprise 5U Tower Server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U enterprise tower server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors running at 2.2 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo. It includes 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across two modules and a PERC H330 storage controller. Eight 2.5-inch hot-swap drive trays are installed in the 16-bay chassis with dual 750 W platinum power supplies.

Virtualisation and Database Hosts

This server suits teams deploying VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE for virtualisation, as well as Windows Server or Linux workloads such as SQL databases, file services and backup targets. Buyers who need front bezel or ready rails included in the box should look elsewhere, as neither is supplied. Organisations requiring more than 16 GB of memory or a different storage controller will need to add those components separately.

Dual 12-Core Xeon Scalable CPUs

The pair of Silver 4214 processors provides 24 cores total at 2.2 GHz base frequency with 3.2 GHz turbo headroom. This CPU configuration determines the compute capacity available for virtual machines, containers and database threads. The LGA 3647 socket and two-socket maximum are fixed by the platform design.

Questions about this item

Which drive-tray count and form factor should I plan for?

The chassis accepts sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays; eight trays are included so you can populate half the slots immediately.

What does the 3.2GHz turbo figure mean once the server is running workloads?

Each Xeon Silver 4214 can lift from its 2.2GHz base to 3.2GHz on active cores, giving short-burst frequency headroom for latency-sensitive tasks.

How does the PERC H330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller limit practical storage speed?

The controller connects drives at up to 12Gb/s per lane, so sequential throughput tops out at the drive and lane capabilities rather than a higher bus ceiling.
