Time Machine Preference Pane. You can choose the drive to be used for backup by TM.
Did you look in TM Help???????
The computer sees the remaining 6.8 GB as the only available space on that drive. TM doesn't realize that the other files are simply old backups, from which it can now start to delete the older files.
Kicking off a TM backup results in a "You don't have enough space here, buddy" sort of message.
