Great, thanks for the input. I managed to cancel the disk balance task that was locking up our unit and now it's working fine apparently.
I also have data backups, data loss is not a real issue, but the time that it would take to re-install and restore all the data is.

How did you managed to cancel the disk balance task that was locking up your unit?
- EKroboterOct 19, 2015Apprentice
Via SSH. If you have it enabled, you can root into it via ssh and do:
btrfs balance cancel /data
Were /data is the path to your volume.
Mine was completly locked up, so I pulled the plug and restarted. The first thing I did was cancel the balance, waited a while and everything came back online.

Sh... SSH is disabled by default and I can't connect via SSH... that a pain :-(

You can try a hard reboot, and see if you can enter the web ui quick enough, you may have a couple of minutes to enable ssh before it locks up.
