One particualr drive getting filled all the way while there are other drives with space on them

[DOS76]

For some reason I can't get my pool to balance correctly. It seems I have one particular drive that is filled up and only has 28kb free on it. Previously I deleted some things that weren't part of the pool hoping to create some empty space but it was then refilled by the pool. How can I safely migrate files off of the drive and onto another drive? Also why is the pool filling this drive all the way up when there is other space available? I'm using Beta 2.2.0.881

Not enough info here. 

Are you using any of the balancer plugins (Drive Space Equalizer, SSD Optimizer, or Ordered File Placement)? 
If you have StableBit Scanner installed, are any of the drives having issues/marked as "damaged"?
In the DrivePool UI, are any of the drives showing real time placement limiters? (the red arrows on the drive bar)?

I'm using Disk Space Equalizer but just installed it like two days ago.

None of my drives are showing errors in StableBit Scanner but I just had a drive go bad that wasn't showing any red flags there either so I guess I'm not sure. I don't check it as much as I should and it seems to only run when I tell it to.

No red bars

In checking scanner most drives haven't been scanned since August or September even though its scheduled to check for unreadable and file system every 30 days

Okay the pool is balancing correctly now with the plugin I added and I'm scanning my drives so everything seems to be back in order

Glad to hear it! 

 

And yeah, if it's actively balancing data, it may stop the scans from occurring, depending in the settings.
