DELL PowerEdge T440 5U rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4116 2.1GHz 128GB DDR4 H730P 16x 2.5" trays 2x 750W PSU

Server for virtualization and storage workloads

This Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server that can also be rack-mounted using an optional conversion kit. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors, each providing 12 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory installed across four 32 GB modules, leaving 12 of the 16 total DIMM slots available for expansion up to 1 TB.

Suits database and virtualization hosts needing

The chassis provides 16 hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays backed by a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. Dual 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies deliver full redundancy. Buyers who need 3.5-inch drive bays, a dedicated rackmount chassis without a conversion kit, or GPU-ready PCIe slots for accelerator cards should evaluate alternative platforms.

16-bay 2.5-inch chassis with PERC H730P controller

The single specification that determines fit is the combination of sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap trays and the H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache. This configuration supports SAS and SATA drives in a wide range of RAID levels, making it suitable for high-capacity arrays or mixed SSD/HDD tiers. Confirm that your intended drives are 2.5-inch form factor and compatible with 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA backplanes before purchase.
