Hello

Here are some steps you can take to improve the performance of your Windows Server 2016:

Switch to High-Performance Power: Power plans for servers dynamically scale the clock speed of the processors to meet the needs of the server at any given time. By changing to a high-performance power plan, you can guarantee the processors run at 100% at all times, so all resources are ready and available when needed.

Disable DOS 8.3 Short File Names: Short File Names for DOS 8.3 is a backwards compatibility feature. If you don’t require support for legacy equipment or short names, you can disable this compatibility option to speed up file indexing and creation.

Check for CPU or RAM Consuming Processes: Use Task Manager or Resource Monitor to identify any processes that are consuming a high amount of CPU or RAM.

Scan for Malware: Malware can significantly slow down a server’s performance. Regularly scan your server for malware to ensure it’s not being affected.

Check Network Speeds: Slow network speeds can cause a server to appear unresponsive or slow. Test your network speeds to ensure they’re operating at an optimal level.

Update Relevant Drivers: Outdated drivers can cause performance issues. Ensure all your drivers, especially those related to your network and storage devices, are up-to-date.

Check for Signs of Attack: Unusual server behavior could be a sign of an attack. Regularly check your server logs for any signs of suspicious activity.

Disable SMB Packet Signing: SMB packet signing can cause unnecessary network traffic, slowing down your server. If it’s not required for your environment, consider disabling it.

Before making any changes, it’s important to back up your data and configurations. Also, note down any changes you make so you can diagnose if those changes cause problems down the line.
