PowerEdge T440 dual Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across four 32 GB modules and includes a Dell PERC HBA330 storage controller. Four 1.92 TB SATA solid-state drives are installed in the 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.

Virtualisation and database host

This configuration suits businesses deploying VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE clusters, as well as Microsoft SQL Server and file-storage workloads that benefit from 32 total cores and 128 GB of ECC memory. The HBA330 controller provides direct JBOD access without hardware RAID, so administrators who need onboard RAID 5 or 6 should consider a different controller card.

16-bay 2.5-inch SATA chassis

The chassis offers sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays wired for SATA and SAS through the HBA330, limiting internal storage to those interfaces. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Express remote management are included, while front bezel and rack rails are not.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 16-bay 2.5-inch configuration or a smaller drive count for the PowerEdge T440?

The 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis gives you room for up to sixteen hot-swap SAS, SATA or SSD drives, so you can start with the four installed 1.92TB SATA SSDs and expand later without adding enclosures.

What does the 2.3GHz base clock with 3.9GHz turbo mean for real workloads on the dual Xeon Gold 5218 CPUs?

Each Gold 5218 runs at 2.3GHz base and can boost to 3.9GHz on active cores, giving 32 total cores across two sockets for strong multi-threaded throughput in virtualization, databases and container platforms.

How does the PERC HBA330 controller limit drive performance in practice?

The HBA330 provides 12Gb/s SAS and 6Gb/s SATA connectivity without RAID overhead, so the four 1.92TB SATA SSDs run at their native 6Gb/s link speed while leaving twelve bays free for future SAS or SATA drives.
