Server platform and intended workloads
The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack server delivered with dual Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.9 GHz turbo frequency. It includes 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across two modules and a PERC H330 storage controller with four 2.5-inch drive trays installed. Redundant 750 W power supplies and iDRAC 9 Express remote management are fitted as standard.
Who this fits and who should look elsewhere
This server suits organisations deploying virtualisation hosts, database engines, or file and backup workloads that can start with the installed 16 GB and scale memory up to the 1 TB maximum across 16 slots. Buyers who need a larger initial memory footprint, pre-installed drives, or a rack bezel and rails included should evaluate other configurations.
Storage controller and drive bay layout
The PERC H330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity to the four included 2.5-inch hot-swap trays, with the chassis supporting up to sixteen such bays for future expansion.

Questions about this item
Does the PERC H330 controller support SAS and SATA drives in the 2.5-inch bays?
Yes, the H330 is a 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA controller and the chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.
Can the two Xeon Gold 5218 processors share memory channels with DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs already installed?
The system has sixteen DDR4 slots across both sockets and ships with 16 GB in two 8 GB modules, so additional RDIMMs can be added to populate remaining channels.
How can I confirm iDRAC 9 Express is responding after first power-on?
Connect the dedicated management port, then browse to the IP shown on the front LCD or DHCP lease table; the iDRAC 9 login page should appear.
