Assuming you've already checked drive health.
it could be directory bloat. if you've had a queue explosion the spool directories may be large but empty.
stop exim and do this
# cd /var/spool/exim/
# cp -al input input2
# rm -r input
# mv input2 input
then start exim again.
that will re-build the spool directories to a smaller size.
