Can you use RDP to connect to the other server?

What I need is to run it from the server I am logged in, thus avoiding the need to do RDP.
If I'll use RDP then I don't need anything because I have My Computer at the remote server.

The treesize solution is very slow because I must wait for the scan of all the disk drives before i get any output.
Using the my computer instead gives an immediate screen with disk capacity and free space for each drive.
