Dell PowerEdge T440 5U tower server
The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. Each processor provides 12 cores for a total of 24 cores across the system. It includes 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory installed across 16 available DIMM slots. A Dell PERC H330 storage controller manages up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant power.
Suited for virtualization
This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation clusters that need dense 2.5-inch drive capacity. It also fits database hosting, file and print services, backup targets and software-defined storage deployments. Buyers who need front bezel or ready rails included in the box, or who require more than two processors installed, should evaluate alternative platforms.
Dual Xeon Silver 4214 with 24 total cores
The decisive specification is the dual-socket configuration populated with two Xeon Silver 4214 CPUs delivering 24 cores at 2.2 GHz base and 3.2 GHz turbo. This core count and clock profile determines whether the server meets the compute demands of the intended virtualization or database workload.

Questions about this item
What does the PERC H330 controller cap the drive interface at?
The PERC H330 runs SAS and SATA drives at 12Gb/s, so every bay is limited to that throughput.
What physical space and rails does the 5U tower need?
It occupies 5U of rack height and requires a separate rack conversion kit; ready rails and the front bezel are not included.
How is the server installed and which step is commonly missed?
Mount the chassis, seat both CPUs in the LGA 3647 sockets, populate DDR4 ECC RDIMMs in matched pairs, insert drive trays, connect power, then enable iDRAC 9 Express before deploying the OS.
