Drive(s) Overallocated after manual archive

I think I know why this is happening but wanted to tread lightly before I do any more damage.

I have a 6TB drive where "Stored" is located. "New" and "Alerts" are on a separate 960GB SSD and the OS is on yet another 960GB SSD. Now for the problem.

I stopped the BI service and manually moved a bunch of files from "Stored" to a new "Backups" folder on the same drive as "Stored". When I restarted BI and ran a DB repair, I now have an error about an overallocated drive, namely, the one containing "Stored". I think this is because I have the "Stored" folder set as "Managed folder, exclusive-use drive". I was tempted to change this to "Managed folder, shared drive" but wanted to check in here before doing anything else.

Thanks for any guidance.

Changing "Stored" to "Managed folder, shared drive" didn't fix it but I did find the answer on page 146 of the extremely complete user manual. Imagine that? RTFM. The overallocated amount for "Stored" was clearly shown on the graph so all I had to do was go into Settings->Storage, and reduce the size of "Stored" by a little more than that amount.
