Volume full denies access

I have a ReadyNAS 1100 with the current firmware used for Acronis backups. The disk became full and I no longer can access any of the shares to free up disk space. It is running X-RAID so can I replace the drives one at a time with lager drives and then reboot to increase the volume size and retain my backup files?

    You can expand your XRAID volume that way, but a full volume should not prevent you from accessing your shares.

    If you download your logs (Status > Logs > Download all logs) and extract the zip contents what does disk_usage.log look like?
