Does Sky cancel scheduled recordings based on how much disk space you have left?

I have a 1tb Sky Q box and there is 60% space taken up. From Friday to Sunday I have 24 scheduled recordings but I will watch some then delete them as they are broadcast. I have every Rugby Champions Cup game scheduled, UFC Fight Night and 2 Boxing cards, including a 6 hour long 4K quality card.

 

I have scheduled all of these, but the UFC Fight Night was taken off my recordings schedule without me doing anything. I had to go back into TV guide, then onto TNT Sports and set it to record again.

 

I'm wondering is it because Sky Q thinks I won't have enough space to record all these programmes that this is happening?

No, that doesn't happen.  More likely that TNT tweaked their schedule slightly causing your scheduled recording to disappear.

The UFC Prelims was set to "Record Series" but changed to record once without me doing anything, is this unusual?
