Dell PowerEdge T440 5U Server
The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server built for virtualization, database hosting, and storage-heavy workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache.
Ideal Use and Limitations
This server suits organizations needing dense 2.5-inch drive capacity in a 5U form factor with dual-processor performance. It is not for buyers who require installed drives, larger memory configurations out of the box, or a tower chassis without a separate conversion kit.
Deciding Specification
The sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays backed by the H730P RAID controller define the storage ceiling. With support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, the bay count and controller set the maximum local capacity and redundancy level.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the PERC H730P controller is managing the 16 drive trays correctly after setup?
Open the controller BIOS during boot to confirm all 16 bays are detected and the configured RAID volumes show optimal status.
Which components are included and which must be purchased separately for this T440?
The server includes two Xeon Gold 5118 CPUs, 16GB DDR4-2400 ECC memory, H730P controller with battery, 16 drive trays, dual 1GbE ports, iDRAC 9 Express, and dual 750W PSUs. Drives, front bezel, and rack rails are not included.
Should I choose a single-processor or dual-processor configuration for this T440?
This unit already has the maximum of two Xeon Gold 5118 processors installed, so no processor choice is needed.
