Unraid currently doesn't support share quotas, you more or less accomplish what you want if the share fits in a single disk, set the share to use that disk only and set the minimum free space accordingly, e.g., lets say disk 1 is 4TB, set the "Test" share to only use disk1 and set minimum free space for that share to 3500GB.

Limit disk space of a share is a very important issue, Can we get it in next upgrade?

There are Feature requests about that (one example : https://forums.unraid.net/topic/84812-share-max-size), not sure if it will happen any time soon.

No need to add another thread for the same thing. I think it would be better to add directly to the existing thread.

Limetech does pick features in this sub-forum for the development, but there is no guarantee that it will pickup or for a milestone.
