You've backed up your NAS and tried to reorganize files, but Windows reports a need for more than 117GB of extra space. Despite having around 20TB free, the system still needs more room. The issue seems linked to large files—like 50 medium-sized MP4s from another source—that exceed the 200GB limit. You can try cleaning up old files, using a different storage layout, or checking for large hidden folders. If the problem persists, consider expanding your NAS drive capacity or adjusting file permissions.

The array size doesn't match the dataset size. Are there any limits on the dataset?

They didn't configure it, so probably not.
