Compact 1U Rack Server
The Dell PowerEdge R440 is a 1U rack server built for dense data-centre deployments. It targets organisations running virtualisation, cloud services or storage workloads that need high compute density in minimal rack space. The system arrives with dual Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors and a full complement of enterprise SSDs.
Dual Xeon Gold 5118 Upgrade
This configuration delivers two 12-core Xeon Gold 5118 CPUs running at 2.3 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo capability. The jump from a single-socket or lower-core-count platform is justified when workloads demand simultaneous multi-threaded throughput across 24 total cores. The 256 GB DDR4-2400 ECC memory kit fills eight DIMM slots with 32 GB modules for immediate capacity.
HBA330 Storage and Dual PSU Redundancy
The PERC HBA330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity to the eight front-accessible 2.5-inch 960 GB SSDs. Dual 550 W platinum-efficiency power supplies deliver redundant power without additional hardware. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 9 Express remote management handle network and out-of-band administration respectively.

Questions about this item
What rack space and rail kit does the 1U PowerEdge R440 need?
The server occupies one rack unit; front bezel and ready rails are not included so a compatible rail kit must be sourced separately.
How are the eight 960 GB SATA drives and HBA330 controller installed, and what step is often missed?
Drives slide into the eight front 2.5-inch bays and connect to the PERC HBA330; the step often missed is creating the virtual disks in the controller BIOS before installing an operating system.
When will the 550 W platinum power supplies or the DDR4-2400 ECC memory need replacement?
The dual 550 W platinum supplies are hot-plug redundant so a failed unit can be swapped without downtime; DDR4-2400 ECC modules typically last the server lifecycle and are replaced only if a memory error is logged by iDRAC 9 Express.
