DELL PowerEdge T440 5U Rack Server 2x Xeon Gold 5218 2.3GHz 16GB DDR4 HBA330 16-Bay 2.5" 2x750W

Server identity and target workloads

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3GHz with a 3.9GHz turbo. Sixteen cores in total and 16GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory provide a foundation for virtualization, database hosting and software-defined storage. The chassis offers sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays and a PERC HBA330 controller for SAS and SATA drives. iDRAC 9 Express handles remote management.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your rack or floor space accommodates a 5U tower form factor and that you have the optional conversion kit if rack mounting is planned. Confirm the operating system and hypervisor support Intel Xeon Scalable architecture and DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs. Ensure network infrastructure provides Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for the dual integrated ports. Note that no drives, front bezel or ready rails are included with this unit.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

Dual 750W platinum-efficiency power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation. The server is designed for enterprise environments where acoustic output is managed by facility cooling rather than desktop silence. Power draw scales with processor load, memory population and the number of installed drives. iDRAC monitoring provides real-time thermal and power metrics for capacity planning.
