Okay so i have a network drive that can store 4TB on it and it has about 40gb worth of adobe prem auto saves and preiviews and then about 1TB of footage. For some reason it's saying i have no space left on it when i look in windows info but when i use a third party tool to look up the space it says im using 1.1TB of the space but says 0b free space on the drive. I've had this issue previosly with adobe but counldn't fix it. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

40gb in previews and autosaves is normal for a 1tb worth of footage, especially if you rely on rendering the timeline often.

Can you explain how come you presumed that previes and auto save are taking too much space?

From what I can tell this is an OS problem, and I have seen that problem with network drives before.
