Log in via ssh again, and use df to tell you the space usage. For example
Welcome to ReadyNASOS 6.9.5 root@NAS:~# df // -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md0 4.0G 940M 2.9G 25% / root@NAS:~#
Normally it will be about 25% used.

Welcome to ReadyNASOS 6.9.5 root@ILLIT-STORAGE:~# df // -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md0 3.7G 1.5G 2.1G 41% / root@ILLIT-STORAGE:~#
