Tower server with sixteen 2.5-inch bays

The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U tower server that can also be rack-mounted with an optional conversion kit. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency, providing 16 cores per processor. The system includes 32 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four modules and a PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache. Four 960 GB SATA SSDs are installed in the front bays.

Suited for virtualization and database workloads

This configuration fits environments that run VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Proxmox VE, Microsoft SQL Server or file and print services. The dual-processor layout and 16 drive bays support software-defined storage and backup targets. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than 32 GB of memory out of the box, or a rack-ready chassis without extra parts should consider other options.

Dual Xeon Gold 5218 processors with 16 cores each

The pair of Gold 5218 CPUs delivers 32 total cores at a 2.3 GHz base clock and 3.9 GHz turbo, which determines the compute throughput for multi-threaded applications. The LGA 3647 socket and two-processor maximum are fixed by the platform. This core count and frequency combination is the primary factor when matching the server to a workload.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" SSDs into the front bays, and what step is often missed?

Insert each 960 GB SATA SSD into one of the sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays until the latch clicks, then use the PERC H730P controller BIOS to create a virtual disk before the OS sees the volume.

Which components will need replacement first during long-term operation?

The H730P RAID controller's 2 GB cache battery and the two 750 W platinum power supplies are the primary field-replaceable units that degrade with age.

What limit appears first when the dual Xeon Gold 5218 CPUs run at full load continuously?

The 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis airflow and the fixed 750 W per supply ceiling constrain sustained turbo operation before the processors hit thermal throttle.
