Bulk backups consuming too much disk space even though I'm sending the backups to a completely separate drive

Hi,

I'm having an issue where my bulk course backups is eating up gigs of space even though I'm sending the backups to a completely different drive located on a separate NAS device.

I've checked the /moodledata/temp/backup directory and there is a bunch of log files in there but they are not taking up much space. 

Can someone tell me if it's safe to delete the contents of the moodledata/trashdir?.... Besides the moodledata/filedir, the trashdir is the next largest directory taking up 55.2 GB of space. Please see attached screen shot for a list of directories and the amount of space they are consuming.

If it's okay to delete the contents of the trashdir from the command line within Linux will it have any impact on the end users or the system in general. If I delete the contents will it start trowing errors on the GUI side.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,

-Sean
