I have a client with an SBS 2011 server that hosts their email, company data, and hosts a few other business services. The system has plenty of RAM; however their issue is HDD access time. The wait time for file access is horrendous. I have found that the SQL DB for WSUS is almost constantly paging the HDD.
My initial thought is to just disable the WSUS and related services. I am not on-site at this facility.
What ramifications are likely to occur from just disabling WSUS? or is there another solution to solve WSUS constantly accessing the HDD?
