Reason and solution see here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS-in-Business/System-volume-root-s-usage-is-xx-This-condition-should-not-occur/m-p/1722477#M178449
Just looked at the s/w manual and the Antivirus button is NOT showing green, so I assume that means it's turned off and therefore my disc root usage should not increase from now on, unless I'm missing something!
Now to go and digest that lengthy solution using 'ssh'. I did spend time yesterday backing up the contents of the NAS to another drive, so if all else fails I could resort to a 'factory reset' and carry out a rebuild, but I'd rather avoid doing that if I can.
