Storage Controller Options Class PERC Internal S140 (SW RAID)PERC H330, H730P, H740P, HBA330 External PERC H84012Gbps SAS HBA GPU Kit Options The GPU R740 Rules: Ensure that both the processors are installed. The processor must use a GPU kit low-profile heat sink module All GPUs must be of the same type and model. You can install up to three double-wide or six single-wide GPUs. The filler bracket on the GPU air shroud must be removed before installing the GPU. Ensure that high-performance fans, and GPU air shroud are installed. When using systems with GPU, ensure that you install PSUs with 1100 W or higher, and set the PSU configuration to non-redundant mode. Generally, any GPU that is greater than 75 W requires a power cable. GPUs with 75 W or less does not require a power cable. The GPU enablement kit includes: GPU air shroud Mylar Riser 3A or 3B GPU cable for riser 3A or 3B GPU cable for riser 2A or 2E Riser 2A or 2E Riser 1A or 1D GPU cable for riser 1A or 1D Two 1U processor and heat sink modules and two CPU clips Six high performance cooling fans PCI Expansion Options Riser configuration and supported risers Slot description PCIe slots on riser 1 (Height and length) Processor connection PCIe slots on riser 2 (Height and length) Processor connection PCIe slots on riser 3 (Height and length) Processor connection Riser configuration 0 (No riser) No PCIe slots (only rear storage) N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Riser configuration 1 (1B+2 B) Four x8 slots Slot 1: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 N/A N/A Slot 2: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 3: x8 full-height, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 2 (1B+2C) Three x8 and one x16 slots Slot 1: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 low profile, half length Processor 2 N/A N/A Slot 2: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 3: x8 full-height, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 3 (1A+2A) Two x8 and three x16 slots Slot 1: x16 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 N/A N/A N/A N/A Slot 5: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 3: x16 full-height, half length Processor 1 Slot 6: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 4 (1A+2A+3A) Three x8 and four x16 slots Slot 1: x16 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 7: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 N/A N/A Slot 5: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 8: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 3: x16 full-height, half length Processor 1 Slot 6: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 15 (1A+2E+3B) Three x8 and four x16 slots Slot 1: x16 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 7: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 N/A N/A Slot 5: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 8: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 3: x16 full-height, half length Processor 1 Slot 6: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 5 (1B+2A+3A) Six x8 and two x16 slots Slot 1: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 7: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 2: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 5: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 8: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 3: x8 full-height, half length Processor 1 Slot 6: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 6 (1D+2A+3A) Five x8 and three x16 slots Slot1: x16 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 7: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 2: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 5: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 8: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 3: x8 full-height, half length Processor 1 Slot 6: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 Riser configuration 16 (1D+2E+3B) Five x8 and three x16 slots Slot1: x16 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 4: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 7: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 2: x8 full-height, full length Processor 1 Slot 5: x8 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 8: x16 full-height, full length Processor 2 Slot 3: x8 full-height, half length Processor 1 Slot 6: x8 low profile, half length Processor 1 Boot Options The BOSS is recommended for non-virtualized operating systems. Virtualized operating systems are best supported by the IDSDM IDSDM or vFlash cardThe IDSDM with vFlash module has a dedicated slot at the back of the system chassis. This is a Dell EMC-proprietary PCIe x1 slot that uses a USB 3.0 interface to host. In the PowerEdge R440 systems, the IDSDM and vFlash card size changes from SD to microSD and the supported capacity for IDSDM microSD cards are 16 GB, 32 GB, or 64 GB, while for vFlash the capacity is 16 GB only. The write-protect switch is built onboard on the IDSDM module. Boot Optimized Storage Subsystem (BOSS)The Boot Optimized Storage Subsystem (BOSS) is an alternative, high speed location to install the operating system. This ensures that the drive based storage is not used by the operating system. BOSS is a simple RAID solution card designed specifically for booting the system's operating system, which supports up to two 6 Gbps M.2 SATA drives. This card has a x8 connector using PCIe gen 2.0 x2 lanes, available only in the low-profile and half-height form factor Power & Dimensions Power PSU Class Frequency 495 W AC Platinum 50/60 Hz 750 W AC Platinum 50/60 Hz 750 W AC Titanium 50/60 Hz 1100 W AC Platinum 50/60 Hz 1100 W DC N/A N/A 1600 W AC Platinum 50/60 Hz 2000 W AC Platinum 50/60 Hz Dimensions & Weight Length: 741.34 mm (29.58") Width: 482.0 mm (18.98") Height: 86.8 mm (3.42") Weight: 2.5" | 26.3 kg (57.98 lb) 3.5" | 28.6 kg (63.05 lb)
