Reclaiming free space there are no snapshots
Hi there
Okay, I can't find anything here that actually helps with this issue. I have a 102 unit and when I delete files from the NAS via the browser interface or via os x finder the space is never freed up. Is there a ssh terminal command that can purge this data completely? I have looked in the data/.purge folder but there is nothing there. I must have deleted at least 200gb off of a 3TB drive and it still says I have only 8GB of available space. Any ideas? Snapshots have never been enabled so I don't have any and I am running the most current firmware. Thank you

So you are running 6.2.5?
Can you send me your logs (see the sending logs link in my sig)?- GuywithsomedataAspirant

I can see heaps of snapshots that were not upgraded when you updated to 6.2.4. They would not be showing in the UI, but they are there.
Do you have a backup of your data?
