Large Used/Free Space Discrepancy

Not sure how to find where this additional space is. including a Time machine backup there is a total of 3.6TB consumed out of the 8tb or so capacity.

 

Snapshots were on at one point. I deleted all of them from the web UI.

 

Whats going on here?

    What firmware are you running?

     

    Have you ever run a balance?

     

    Also, how old is the data volume? If it's very old there might be ancient snapshots that aren't visible from the web UI.

      Ver  6.9.3

       

      Ran balance regularly on a schedule.

       

      Volume is old but snapshots were turned off and deleted after s month or two  of setup.

        You could enable ssh, and confirm there are no snapshots left using the linux shell commands.
