DELL PowerEdge T440 5U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4116 2.1GHz 12 Core 128GB DDR4 H730P 2x 750W

Dual-Socket Xeon 5U Server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 12 cores for a total of 24 cores. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four 32 GB modules. A PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60.

Virtualisation and Storage Workloads

This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE virtualisation clusters, database hosting, file services, backup targets, or software-defined storage. The 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis and dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide capacity and redundancy for those roles. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, 10 GbE networking, or a tower form factor without a conversion kit should evaluate other platforms.

16-Bay 2.5-Inch Drive Capacity

The chassis accepts up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS, SATA, or SSD drives, though only four drive trays are included. This bay count is the primary constraint when planning storage density or RAID group sizing. The H730P controller manages the arrays, and iDRAC 9 Express provides remote management. Confirm tray and cabling requirements before deployment.
