Buffalo Forums

I have a Buffalo Link Station LS-W1.0TGL/R1 , been using it for quite some time, it is a raid system that has been partitioned into 5 separate partitions with some simple user password access enabled. The device is connected to a home network via Ethernet to Netgear router. The netgear router feeds into a number of local switches that serve all the ports in the house.  I have a windows desktop computer that is connected to the network via the Ethernet . Recently, my system is indicating that storage is full, when files are updated and an attempt to save the update is made, the system indicates via pop up window " There is not enough disk space. Free enough disk space, and then try again."
I have tried power cycling the Linkstation, the network devices and the computer but the status does not change.
when checking the properties for each partition, they all indicate they only have 20K in storage remaining ?? the fact that each partition has only the 20k left is suspect.

Any suggestions on how to address this would be appreciated....

You have not create 5 partitions, you have created 5 shares, they use the same disk space. The device IS full so you need to delete some data.

davo... thanks for the clarification... I did remove a good deal of the files to see if it would help and the disk is still showing red...not sure what amount of free space is required to for the device to no longer show red but I would think I reached that point?

Once you delete the data it is then probably moved to a folder in the particular share called "trash box" you need to delete the files from this folder to actually free up space.
