DELL PowerEdge R440 1U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 16GB DDR4 HBA330 8x 2.5" fillers 2x 550W PSU

Compact 1U server for dense rack deployments

The Dell PowerEdge R440 is a 1U rack server built for organisations that need to maximise compute density in limited space. It arrives new with dual Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1GHz base and 3.7GHz turbo, delivering 16 cores per socket for virtualisation, cloud and storage workloads. The 12Gb/s SAS/SATA HBA330 controller manages the eight 2.5-inch drive bays currently populated with fillers. Integrated iDRAC 9 Express provides remote monitoring and administration from deployment through retirement.

Dual CPU, ECC memory and redundant power in one

Two Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs share 16GB of DDR4-2666 ECC registered memory across two DIMMs, leaving additional slots free for future capacity increases. The PERC HBA330 handles SAS and SATA drives without RAID overhead, freeing PCIe lanes for networking or accelerator cards. Dual 550W platinum power supplies operate in redundant mode, so a single unit failure does not interrupt service. The integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet adapter handles baseline connectivity without consuming an expansion slot.

Sustained throughput with platinum efficiency

Platinum-rated power supplies maintain high efficiency across the full load range, reducing heat output during extended virtualisation or database sessions. The 1U airflow path is engineered for front-to-rear cooling in closed rack rows, keeping both processors near their 2.1GHz base clock during prolonged multi-threaded work. ECC memory corrects single-bit errors in flight, preventing silent data corruption during long-running compute jobs. iDRAC 9 Express tracks thermal trends and power draw remotely, allowing proactive action before throttling occurs.
