Dell PowerEdge T440 tower server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server built around two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across eight 32 GB modules and a Dell PERC HBA330 storage controller. The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays and eight drive trays are included.

Suits virtualisation hosts

This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation, database hosting, file storage or backup workloads that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 9 Express remote management simplify deployment. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, rackmount deployment without a conversion kit or more than two processors should evaluate other platforms.

HBA330 controller limits RAID options

The Dell PERC HBA330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity in HBA mode only, meaning hardware RAID levels are not available from this card. Software RAID or a separate RAID controller is required for redundancy. The system supports up to 1 TB of DDR4 memory across sixteen slots and includes two redundant 750 W platinum power supplies.

Questions about this item

What storage drives must I provide to populate the 16 hot-swap 2.5" bays?

You need SAS or SATA drives — HDD or SSD — in 2.5" form factor; the HBA330 controller supports both and the server ships with 8 drive trays installed.

Will my existing PCIe expansion cards fit alongside the PERC HBA330 controller?

The chassis includes standard PCI Express slots for RAID, networking, GPU or other add-in cards; the HBA330 occupies one slot and the rest remain available for your current hardware.

How do I confirm the iDRAC 9 Express remote management is operational after first power-on?

Connect the dedicated iDRAC network port, access its IP via browser, and verify the Lifecycle Controller dashboard shows both Xeon Silver 4214 CPUs, 256 GB DDR4-2400 memory, and the HBA330 controller.
