We are going to remove some computers on this service but we believe there will still a large backup files left behind.. How do we remove these and reclaim the space?
You could log in to the NAS as user ReadyNAS and the Time Machine backups will be visible to you. They will take a very long time to delete that way and Netgear needs to come up with another solution for this.
If you have shell access, they are stored in /c/.timemachine and you can delete the files using the normal *ix commands.
