Thanks for the reply,
On my system it looks like this:

I suggest moving everything but mirrors.dat to the data volume temporarily, and then re-running freshclam. I suspect that will reduce the space.

You'd have to ask Netgear. One consideration is that the AV can also protect the OS partition itself, so it should be available even if the data volume can't be mounted.
But you can move it yourself easily enough, just shift it to /data/.apps/clamav, and create a soft link in /var/lib.
