Just got an error "Snapshot on volume C was invalidated ...
I just received an error:
Snapshot on volume C was invalidated and has been removed due to reserve space being completely used
What snapshot is this? I have tons of diskspace left so it's a weird error to see.
Thanks.

- Snapshots are used for "freezing" contents of shares during backups. During the initial setup of your NAS, you were asked what size snapshot to use (if any). Check Frontview > Volumes > Volume Settings > Snapshot to see the size:
In a nutshell, it likely means that you've added/changed more data than the snapshot can keep track of (and not really too much of a concern unless you're using snapshots when backing up your NAS). - Cool - thanks. It's doing a big fsck right now but I will disable the setting when it comes back up.
Thanks!
