As the message suggests, do you have any space left on your hard drive?

Yes I have enough space in my HDD. It seems like is blocked to Obsidian. I found a way to solve this issue moving the Google Drive folder to an other partition but the old directory still presentting that error.

Did you try the solution here?

I tried to solve the problem with the info in the post but unfortunately it didn’t work.

In the latest update to Google Drive, I notice it now appears as a separate mounted volume in MacOS. Maybe it is the same in Linux. Did you run out of space in your Google Drive?

Yes, I noticed the same thing in Windows now they appear as separate volumes, however, it shouldn’t be a problem because my google drive account has about 8GB of free space.

I think it’s a physical problem with my hard drive because when I changed the location of my VAULT to an SSD the problem disappeared, I can’t think of anything else why it’s not working and showing me this error.
