DELL PowerEdge R440 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 5118 2.3GHz 12-core 256GB DDR4 8x 1.8TB SAS H330 2x 550W

Dense 1U Server for Virtualisation

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R440 is a compact 1U rack server built for business, data-centre, virtualisation, cloud and storage workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory and a PERC H330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA storage controller. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 9 Express provide remote management and connectivity.

Suited to Organisations Maximising Rack Density

This configuration targets teams that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit for virtualisation, application hosting or database tasks. The eight 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives deliver fast rotational storage under the H330 controller. Buyers who require solid-state media, additional PCIe expansion cards or front bezel and ready-rail kits should evaluate alternative configurations.

Eight 2.5-Inch 1.8 TB 10K SAS Drives Under a H330

The storage subsystem consists of eight 2.5-inch enterprise hard drives rated at 1.8 TB each, spinning at 10K rpm and connected via 12 Gb/s SAS to the PERC H330. This array determines total raw capacity and I/O profile for the workload. Confirm that the SAS interface and drive count match the storage architecture before deployment.
