Dual Xeon Silver 4214 5U Server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo and twelve cores. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across sixteen DIMM slots and includes a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power.

Virtualisation hosts needing dense 2.5-inch storage

This configuration suits organisations building virtualisation clusters, database nodes or software-defined storage on fifteen-millimetre drives. The sixteen hot-swap bays and hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 support mixed SAS, SATA and SSD workloads. Buyers who require 3.5-inch drive carriers, larger installed memory or integrated 10 GbE should evaluate alternative platforms.

Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays

The chassis accepts up to sixteen 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives with hot-swap trays included, and the H730P controller manages them through a 12 Gb/s SAS interface. This bay count determines whether the server fits a storage-heavy deployment or if a smaller enclosure is sufficient.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power draw should I expect from the 2x Xeon Silver 4214 12-core CPUs and 2x 750W PSUs running 24/7?

Two Xeon Silver 4214 processors each run at 2.2GHz base with 3.2GHz turbo across 12 cores, and the dual 750W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation.

Which drives and caddies do I need to populate the 16x 2.5" hot-swap bays with the PERC H730P controller?

The sixteen 2.5-inch trays accept SAS and SATA drives; the H730P 2GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through for those drives.

Can I keep my existing DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs and add them to the 16 memory slots alongside the installed 16GB?

The system has 16 DDR4 slots supporting up to 1TB total; the installed 16GB uses two 8GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered modules, so matching RDIMMs can fill the remaining slots.
