Mysterious MBL storage size

I realized my MBL storage size which had over 6gb left 3days ago has gone down to about 1.9gb and continues to reduce in storage size.

I am absolutely sure I have not copied any files intentionally or inadvertently during these days. Could it be Twonky cache or MBL cache or some hidden meta files somewhere.

kindly advice.

cheers

Could be ALL of that.

BTW, you’re in VERY dangerous territory if you only have less than 10GB of space left.  *VERY* dangerous.

I would strongly recommend you clean out about 50 GB and leave it forever free.

Thanks.

what makes it ‘dangerous’ though?

Filling the file system completely full on *ANY* system is dangerous because there may no longer be room for critical system files, logs, etc…  

This is especially true on Linux-based systems (like most NAS boxes.)

It’s even quite possible to get it to a point that it will no longer boot – leaving you a brick.
