Time machine backups on ReadyNAS 4 Ultra

[Rumsound]

Hi,

running ReadyNAS 4 Ultra for a couple of years. One of the services I use is Time Machine backup. My question is how do I delete the old sparse images of the computers I don't own anymore. For instance I sold my old MacbookPro but I found no way how to delete its backup from ReadyNAS so there's huge amount of wasted space I can't use anymore. Any hint how to delete those old backups?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Roman

Thanks a lot!!!! Installed ssh root access and deleted stuff via Terminal on my Mac.

Excellent 👍
