Dual-socket Xeon Gold 5218 server

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3GHz with 3.9GHz turbo. It ships with 256GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across eight 32GB modules. A PERC HBA330 controller provides 12Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity for the sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive trays. Dual 750W platinum power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power.

Virtualisation hosts and storage-heavy workloads

This configuration suits teams running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox clusters that need dense 2.5-inch drive capacity and dual-socket compute. The HBA330 operates in non-RAID mode, so builders who require hardware RAID levels must add a PERC RAID card. Organisations without rack infrastructure should note the front bezel and ready rails are not included.

Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays with HBA330

The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap trays wired to a single HBA330 controller, defining the maximum drive count and the storage protocol available without extra cards. This bay count and controller choice determine whether the server fits a software-defined storage design or a traditional RAID deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 256 GB configuration or add more DDR4 modules up to the 1 TB limit?

The system ships with 256 GB across eight 32 GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs, leaving eight of the sixteen slots free for expansion to 1 TB.

What does the 2.3 GHz base and 3.9 GHz turbo mean for a virtualisation host running all day?

Each of the two Xeon Gold 5218 processors delivers sixteen cores at 2.3 GHz with turbo up to 3.9 GHz, giving thirty-two threads sustained performance for heavy VM workloads.

How does the HBA330 controller affect the sixteen 2.5-inch drive bays?

The PERC HBA330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity to all sixteen hot-swap bays without RAID, so each drive runs at its native SAS or SATA speed.
