Server overview
The Dell PowerEdge T440 is a 5U rack-mountable tower server designed for enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz with 3.0GHz turbo across twelve cores each. The system includes sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory and a PERC HBA330 storage controller.
Fit and alternatives
This configuration suits teams running virtualization, database hosting, file storage or backup on SAS or SATA drives. Buyers who need GPU compute density, higher single-thread frequency or more than eight drive trays populated should evaluate other platforms. The installed sixteen gigabytes of memory also limits immediate capacity for memory-heavy applications.
Deciding specification
The PERC HBA330 controller provides twelve gigabit per second SAS and SATA connectivity for up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays. This interface determines which drive types can be used and the maximum throughput available to the storage subsystem.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the two Xeon Silver 4116 processors and 16 GB DDR4 are detected after power-on?
The system will display both CPUs and the installed memory during POST; iDRAC 9 Express also shows processor and memory inventory once the management interface is reached.
Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?
Included are dual Xeon Silver 4116 CPUs, 16 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMMs, HBA330 controller, eight 2.5" drive trays, dual 750 W PSUs, and dual 1 GbE ports; front bezel and ready rails are not included.
Which configuration should I choose if I need room for future storage growth?
The chassis provides sixteen 2.5" hot-swap bays while only eight trays are supplied, so the same model leaves eight empty bays ready for additional drives.
