I had one suggestion that some NAS reserve a portion of the disk space for cache? 20% of the drive?
Not sure what NAS those might be, but ReadyNAS don't do that.
There is a 4 GB OS partition, and if gets full the system will misbehave in a variety of ways. If that's your situation you should have seen some alerts on that - but perhaps you mixed them up with the data volume size alerts you'd also be getting. So look in the logs, and see if that's your situation.

You could have a fully allocated data volume with the allocation for data or metadata fully utilised. There are multiple possibilities.
You could start by looking at e.g. btrfs.log and volume.log. You could also send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig).
