DELL PowerEdge T440 5U Rack Server 2x Xeon Silver 4116 2.1GHz 12 Core 64GB DDR4 H730P

Dell PowerEdge T440 5U Server Platform

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server that can also be rack-mounted using an optional conversion kit. It arrives with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz with a 3.0GHz turbo frequency, providing 24 total cores. The system includes 64GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across four 16GB modules and a PERC H730P 2GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Two 750W platinum power supplies deliver redundant power.

Suited for virtualisation

This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation, database hosting, file storage or backup workloads. The sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays support SAS and SATA media, while the dual 1GbE ports and iDRAC 9 Express provide essential connectivity and remote management. Buyers who need higher single-thread performance, integrated GPU compute or a smaller physical footprint should evaluate alternative form factors.

Dual Xeon Silver 4116 12-core processor

The decisive specification is the dual-processor layout with two Silver 4116 CPUs, each delivering 12 cores at 2.1GHz base clock. This fixes the maximum processor count at two and determines the LGA 3647 socket platform. Memory capacity can scale to 1TB across 16 DDR4 slots, but the installed 64GB and dual-CPU topology define the performance baseline for licensing and workload planning.
