Drive size didn't change after removing 30gb?

Is your NAS a Duo v1 or Duo v2? Kindly check this link: http://www.rnasguide.com/2012/01/09/how ... -or-nv-v2/

What is the current FW version of your NAS?

Have you tried to reboot your NAS?

Is your NAS set on XRAID?

Can you try disabling the recycle bin then reboot the unit again?

Thanks for the reply's, I believe from the pictures it is a V2,I have rebooted the drive, it is set to XRAID and I have updated the firmware, but I will check the version when I get home, how to you disable the recycle bin.

Thanks

this is for v1 so we need to know the correct version of the NAS.


Log in to the NAS Frontview.
Click Shares > Share list. This brings up a list of your shares.
Click the pen and paper icon under CIFS for the share you want to enable the recycle bin for.
Scroll down to Recycle Bin and unselect the checkbox Enable Recycle Bin. (this is where you can also adjust the settings for when the files should be automatically deleted and the size limit.)
Click Apply in the lower right corner.

It looks like v2, but mine has a 2 usbs and 1 SATA port, the firmware is 6.2.2. ReadyNAS102.

Thanks

Ah, then you need to delete some snapshots of the share in question to free up the space.

How do you remove snapshots, I see that there are 40 (10 months protection), but when I select the share and select snapshot it asks new snapshot name.

Thanks

Snapshot will create a new manual snapshot.
You need to click on Shares, then the share in which you want to remove snapshots, then click on recover.
You can then select the view the suits you best. You will be able to view the sanpshots.
Click on the one you want to delete and select Delete.
