Your Polygon home server has a limited amount of storage, so it's important to keep the space as tidy as possible. Regularly check the disk usage to ensure that critical files are not being unnecessarily overwritten. The server uses snapshots to help manage backups, but too many snapshots can take up a lot of space. Aim to keep only the most recent snapshots and delete older ones that are not necessary.

To keep everything running smoothly, perform a clean-up routine once a month. This includes checking for and deleting old log files, updating backup snapshots, and cleaning up any unnecessary files from the shared folders. Ensure that all family members are aware of the importance of not storing large, non-essential files on the server to prevent it from running out of space.
