I was having the same problem with all my sites (disk full, 550 ftp errors) and they were under the same unix user... after changing the hosting to a new unique username, I can write to the drive again and sites are back up and running (well not yet... I have over 20 gigs of files to move up and down and 15 websites to transfer) :) Hope that helps.

I've fixed it. I have no idea why this was not reported by our monitoring systems, but I'm investigating right now, and will keep an eye on your file server to make sure this doesn't happen again."
