Hi,
I had exactly the same problem. For the solution, which worked on my NAS, please refer to: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS-in-Business/System-volume-root-s-usage-is-84-This-condition-should-not-occur/m-p/1722230#M178435

Same here. Firmwarevers. 6.9.5
I have two 102's, one in cityflat and one in summerhouse (for backup and safety), mirror-sync'ing with Resilo, that I have configured correct!
Has worked beautifully for 4 years.
First warning was yesterday, 81%, second today 85% and only on one of them, which turned out to be te only one where I have enabled antivirus!
Besides that they are exactly the same.
I have read in one reply that I can delete the comodo temp-files, an in another that I can revert to factory settings.
Question 1: I have an MCSE+I (fairly old), but very limited unix-experience. Can someone point me to a manual or description of how to enter and work on the Netgear OS ?
Question 2: If I choose the factory reset (old Microsoft-habit ;-), can I then keep my nearly full 3TB disc, replace it with a clean HD, do the operation and then switch back to my data-disk, to avoid making a full Resilo resync of the disc.
And finally: Does anybody know when Netgear will fix this problem?
Best regards
