Directory not empty
I managed to remove all the file before I used this syntax "sudo rm -R /Volumes/SBFD/.Trashes/502/Storge" now I receive this error:
"rm: /Volumes/SBFD/.Trashes/502/Storge: Directory not empty"
What should I do now?

You likely have a hidden .DS_Store, or other hidden file in one, or more of those folders in your external path. In the Terminal, do the following:
find /Volumes/SBFD/.Trashes -type f -iname "\.*" -print
