No it's not full.
/dev/sde5            1922853680  62896064 1762282252   4%

/dev/sde5:
 multcount     =  0 (off)
 readonly      =  0 (off)
 readahead     = 256 (on)
 geometry      = 243200/255/63, sectors = 3907014656, start = 4096

File sizes are fairly large.  Theyre classical music flac files of fixed
size. I add maybe 4 or 5 new files a week on average.
