Free space is low on hard drives

I have a new 2012 R2 Server Essentials system to replace a WHS v1 system.

Ever since installing the system and copying my media files over, I have been getting errors from the system:

<Title> Free space is low on hard drives. <Description> The following hard drives have less than 10 % of free space:

E:\

If space is not made available, you may not be able to save additional information.. <AdditionalInfo> .

However, both the storage space and the individual drives (build from 2x2TB in a mirror) have more than enough space to cover my media files (400GB), and the backup of my first computer(400GB), for 800GB, or 1.6TB in a mirror.

Specifically:

Storage space (E:)

Storage Pool information:

Storage pool capacity 3.6 TB

Storage pool used space 1.6 TB

Storage Space information about this drive:

Storage space size: 16TB

Storage space allocated size: 864.2

Provisioning type: Thin

Resiliency type: Two-way mirror

I have two questions:

1. Is something misconfigured in my storage space, such that I'm actually out of space somewhere?

2. If not, why am I getting this error?
