DELL PowerEdge T440 5U rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4214 2.2GHz 12-core 64GB DDR4 H730P 8x 2.5" trays

Dell PowerEdge T440 5U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4214 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency and twelve cores. It arrives with 64 GB of DDR4 memory installed across four 16 GB modules and includes a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller. Eight 2.5-inch drive trays are fitted, and dual 750 W power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power. iDRAC 9 Express enables remote management out of the box.

Who this suits and who it does not

This server fits organisations deploying virtualisation hosts, database platforms, file storage or backup targets that can use SAS or SATA drives. Buyers who need more than 1 TB of total memory capacity, more than two physical processors, or a tower chassis without a rack conversion kit should evaluate alternative platforms.

The specification that decides fit

The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, so the choice of RAID level and the number of drives you populate in the eight trays will define usable capacity and redundancy.
