Documentation for supported hardware components for the Dell R430, R440, R730, and R740 servers can be found in their respective technical guides. For detailed specifications, refer to the manuals available on Dell's support website, or contact the sales department for information on any unsupported hardware. [community thread]
For retrofitting the R440 to support NVMe drives, it's advisable to refer to the user manual for accurate cabling instructions. A PCIe extender card may be necessary if utilizing the SAS drive slots, and ensure that the SAS cables are of adequate length to connect to the HBA card. [community thread]
The reboot may be due to the UPS outputting a simulated sine wave, which can cause the R440's power supply to lose sync and restart. Ensure the UPS provides a pure sine wave output and has a transfer time of less than 4 ms. Additionally, check for firmware updates for both the UPS and the R440. [community thread]
Both the R440 and R640 servers can support up to x8 U.2 NVMe SSDs with the appropriate storage controller. Ensure that your Micron 9200 MAX drives are U.2 NVMe models, as they are compatible for use in both servers. [community thread]
The PowerEdge R440 supports specific DIMMs that are compatible with its 14th generation architecture. For a list of supported RAM modules, please refer to the official documentation or product page. [community thread]
For the Dell PowerEdge R440 with two CPUs, ensure that all memory modules are DDR4 and do not mix RDIMMs with LRDIMMs. Populate memory slots starting with the highest capacity modules in the white release tab slots, followed by lower capacity modules in the black release tab slots, and maintain identical configurations for both processors to avoid performance issues.
