I think I've solved my problem, and would like to share it with others here since I haven't seen this recommended amongst the Nginx community.
I shared this thread over on the r/nginx subreddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/nginx/comments/hmv3xx/how_to_keep_nginx_from_maxing_out_on_disk_space/
Rather then repost my solution here, I'll just link to my Comment with what I did:

As mentioned, I'll need to see long-term that this doesn't cause any issues. Just surprised how much the Nginx cache can fill up.
