Disk Full , can't access EX2 drive

So we a have problem with our EX2, red light has come on and it appears the drives is full (only 28kb left), although I can see the drive on the network I can’t access the files to free up more space, i can also access the drive via the web browser with the IP.

However as it stands i can’t access the files on it, just times out trying to browse.

Any ideas, thanks

Cool joke

Try to delete something via explorer. (or in mobile app) It`s a BIG problem with MyClouds when free space gone… Find the way clear space…
