The OS partition (root) is only 4 GB, so you do need to be careful when installing packages. Not sure what you moved out of /var, but if you don't know what those files are for, you could easily mess up the NAS. One approach is to move the newly installed folders in the root to the data volume, and then create a soft link to the new folder in the original installed location.
But another possibility is that you are running out of memory. It would take more analysis to figure that out. The memory is soldered onto the system board, so it cannot be upgraded.

The folders were user created folders that were in the /var folder, I can't say why they were there though.
StephenB Would there be a possibility for some assistance with this please as I am at the point of just doing a factory reset and getting the system up from scratch again, which I do not want to do though.
Would radarr and Mono cause the issues? I can't upload PlexMedia server as when I do it loads and the device then shows the login screen before it completes as well.

Sorry, though I am active here, I am just a customer and am not in a position to provide remote support.

It sounds like they did. Perhaps try uninstalling them next.
