asked on Dell Server R 510: To make it "Cleaner" so it would be "faster"
Hi,
I have Window Server Dell R 510.
The OS is Windows 2019 server.
Goal: I need the server would be “cleaner” to make it a little bit faster (If possible, by using the built-in tools from the Windows OS)(Note: The RAM in the server is already 32 GB). Any suggestion?.
Thanks,
tjie

This his highly dependent on what applications you're running also.
If you're only running a browser, email client, maybe LibreOffice, then using Ubuntu will be far faster than Windows, as there's much less bloat.
Start by describing the apps you're running + what exactly you mean by slow, as all slowness occurs due to I/O, either network or disk. Rarely does CPU or memory come into play for slowing down GUI type software.

Question: How to do it? It is at the Active Directory?

" .... Works even on PERC6/i...."
Question: What do you mean with it? Would you elaborate a little bit please.

You can use SSD with PERC6/i RAID controller. I have used it successfully. What is your RAID controller now?
When you do a new install you can install just core without GUI...
Then you can administer from a different box very easily.
You can use server manager from another server, or you can use Windows Admin Center to do all tasks on the servers.

How is it slow?
I would guess storage. Upgrade the storage to something faster, like SSD. Works even on PERC6/i.
If CPU bound, upgrade processor.
