DELL PowerEdge R440 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 512GB DDR4 8x 1.92TB SATA H730P 2x 550W

Compact 1U rack server for virtualization

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R440 is a 1U rackmount server built for dense data centre environments. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1GHz with a 3.7GHz turbo frequency, providing 16 cores each. The system includes 512GB of DDR4-2666 ECC registered memory across 16 DIMM slots and a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2GB cache and battery backup. Eight 1.92TB SATA solid-state drives fill the front 2.5-inch bays, while dual 550W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Express remote management complete the configuration.

Suited for dense virtualization hosts

This server targets organisations running virtualised workloads, application hosting or database tasks that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity in a single rack unit. The eight-drive bay layout and hardware RAID support make it appropriate for local storage-intensive deployments. Buyers who need more than eight drive bays, GPU compute acceleration or additional PCIe expansion slots beyond the 1U form factor should evaluate larger platforms.

Eight 1.92TB SATA SSDs

The storage subsystem centres on eight enterprise-class 1.92TB SATA 6Gb/s SSDs managed by the PERC H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. This combination fixes the usable capacity, performance tier and data protection options available without adding drives. Confirm that the total raw capacity, SATA interface speed and RAID level support match the workload requirements before deployment.
