Dual Xeon Gold 5118 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. It includes 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across 16 DIMM slots, supporting up to 1 TB total capacity. A PERC H330 storage controller manages up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays, though only eight trays are supplied. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power, and iDRAC 9 Express enables remote management.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This server suits organisations deploying VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE clusters, as well as Microsoft SQL Server, file services and backup workloads that benefit from dual-socket performance and dense 2.5-inch storage. Buyers who require GPU-accelerated compute or more than eight drive trays populated out of the box should evaluate other configurations.

PERC H330 12 Gb/s controller

The installed Dell PERC H330 handles SAS and SATA drives at 12 Gb/s, determining which drives can be used and how many arrays are supported. Confirm that your intended SAS or SATA media are compatible with this controller before purchase.
