Thanks again very much for the help!
I've cleared out the plex junk files left behind, and and the old torrent file. I'm down to aobut 30% disk usage.
I can navigate the file system through SSH, and diagnostics come back all good through RAIDar, and I've rebooted a couple times. However, I still can not get the admin page to load.
