You probably have auto_snapshot enabled, which takes snapshots when you do certain things. You can disable that if you dont need it, but it protects you against things like accidentally dropping / truncating a table.
You may also be doing snapshots manually - if you do this, you can 'nodetool clearsnapshot' to free up space.
