    It's red because it's too full.  Generally Netgear begins warning about capacity planning when the volume reaches 70% full - yours is about 90%.

     

    It looks like you haven't put any shares on your second disk - so begin by creating a share on it, and moving some files over from the main volume. 

     

    Another path (perhaps better)  is to delete the second volume, and replace the second disk with a larger one - e.g. another 6 TB one.  Then create some shares on it, and move about half your files over to it.
