I have a Pegasus2 R8 24T that I use with my Mac. I made the mistake of trying to free up space by moving a bunch of backup folders from the Pegasus to the Trash folder. Now I cannot empty the trash and cannot figure out how to get them out of the trash. Any advice?

Yes, they are backups. I will try apple support but all of the solutions suggested so far do not work.
I cannot find the .Trashes directory on the Pegasus HD
Randy-4:~ Randy$ cd /Volumes/"Promise 24T RAID"/.Trashes/
Randy-4:.Trashes Randy$ sudo ls 501/
Password:
ls: 501/: No such file or directory

Hi Randol,
-Is that backup folders are TimeMachine backup folders?
-Have you tried to delete files one by one from Trash?
Please contact Apple Support if you unable to delete any files from Trash.
