Try this

1 In the console, click Admin.
2 On the lower left, click Servers.
3 Select the site you want to configure.
4 Under Tasks, click Edit Site Properties.
5 On the Log Settings tab, set the number of entries and number of days to
keep log entries for each type of log.

I think the files sizes are not huge.....

I think the files sizes are not huge...
Run this validation tool and find out whether database is correct or not.

Validation Tool for the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Database
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security....

If the database is correct then there is not problem with the size...
You have tried normal purge option so there will not be any new things to do.

  If Drive space is the issue the you may have to look at other possibilities. like liveupdate contents in SEPM etc...
