If you can't pull the plug of the drive you can unmount it. The folder might be still there. If you are sure the drive is unmounted, you can delete the folder.

I am a step behind you. I can get the drives removed later today. but once i have done that...what am I looking to delete off of the SD fs as I cant find anything filling it up.

If you now (with the drive mounted) look in the folder /srv/ there should be one or more folder called
/srv/dev-disk-by......
These are the mount points of the filesystems. One for each filesystem. If you have only one drive connected with one filesystem, you will se only one or them.
If you remove the drives check if the folders are still there and if they have a significant size (some GB). If that is the case, delete the folder. It is the folder where the rsync job copied the data while the filesystem was not mounted.
Ähm.... are you booting from the SSD?

obv the WD6TB(1) are my two data drives.
...this is with those drives unplugged.
do I delete it all ?
-
You should unplug or unmount these disks and then look inside those directories.
/srv/dev-disk-by-label-WD6TB
/srv/dev-disk-by-label-WD6TB1
Anything there is suspicious because it should have been written to the disks, not to the directories.
Hopefully your mountpoints will not be converted to by-UUID when you mount them again. But you should be prepared to deal with that if it happens. It won't be nice.
-
I guess im asking....
with the drives removed - should those folders be there at all?
There WAS a bunch of data in one of them and I deleted it.
-
The empty folders are your mountpoints. They belong there. They should be empty when there are no drives mounted to them under normal circumstances.
Just be sure that no drive is mounted before you start deleting stuff.

Thank you very much to all those that stepped in and helped.
All my issues are currently resolved and drives are back on line and SD card is back to 9% utilized as it should be.
SOLVED!
