This is the reason you can't access the web ui.&nbsp; If you don't address it, you will end up with configuration issues, since the config files are all in the volume root.
&nbsp;
Begin by backing up your data.
&nbsp;
After that is complete you have two options:

Do a factory default, rebuild the NAS, and reload the data.
Repair the full root problem with ssh (removing the files that have filled it).

&nbsp;
If ssh is not enabled already, then the alternative for (2) is to reboot in tech support mode, and connect with telnet.&nbsp; From there you'd need to mount the OS partition manually.
&nbsp;
If you aren't already familiar with the linux command line, then the first option is best.

That is the second option I outlined.&nbsp; Are you familiar with the linux command line?
&nbsp;
No matter what option, the data is at risk, so I am strongly recommending that you back it up before proceeding.

What you need to do is boot the NAS in tech support mode.&nbsp; Possibly you are already in that - hard to day, as there is also a "Secure diagnostic mode".&nbsp; In any event, instructions are on pages 17-18 here:&nbsp;https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RN2120/ReadyNAS_OS6_Rackmount_HWM_EN.pdf
&nbsp;
From there, you access the NAS with telnet.&nbsp; Personally I use the putty client (on windows) to do that. The username is root, the password is&nbsp;infr8ntdebug
&nbsp;
Once in, enter
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
rnutil chroot
&nbsp;
which will both start raid, and chroot.
&nbsp;
I don't recall if you also need to enter this afterwards:
&nbsp;
mount /dev/md0 /sysroot
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Once in, you can look for large files in the OS partition, as usually there is just one or two that are causing the problem.
&nbsp;
Normally the OS partition is 20-25% full.

Then use the boot menu.
