Hey! There's a hotfix for MDT and SCCM that lead to extremely slow imaging times. This was big news about 18 months ago or so, when 8 hour imaging became the norm until the hotfix came out.
You should find the hotfix here. http://myitforum.com/myitforumwp/docs/configuration-manager-2012-r2-known-issues/ Another thing to try is allowing Anonymous logon as shown in this example https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/336f2c19-6a3d-4d69-a6c0-849b712d4bd9/mdt-2013-sccm-2012-r2-slow-mdt-download?forum=configmanagerosd On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 1:21 PM, David Landry <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you Michael.
