Acronis says "there is not enough space on the volume where the snapshot storage is located."

Thread needs solution

Acronis will not back up despite the 3 TB drive being empty. I deleted previous backups to begin new, but now it will not back up anything. About to go to another disk backup program...

Jeffrey, welcome to these public User Forums.

All snapshot data is stored on the source disk drive, not on your empty 3TB storage drive, so the message is suggesting an issue with space on the source drive or one of its partitions.

Please download and use the Acronis VSS Doctor tool (link below) which should help narrow down where the actual issue is?
