Can't free space

I'm getting the following error on a ReadyNAS 102, Version 6.6.0 with 2 -1TB Hard drives in Raid 1

 

Volume: Less than 5% of volume data's capacity is free. Performance on volume data is degraded. To improve performance, you must add capacity.

 

In order to free space I deleted a share to be able to delete all the snapshots and then recreated the share,  but it seems it didn't free up any space.

 

It's showing that i'm using 551 GB of Data and 380 GB of Snapshots, but If I add the space of all my shares i'm only using 150 GB.

    Try running a balance (click on the volume settings wheel on the volume page).

  • Nevermind, Rebooted NAS and It shows the correct storage space.
