Interesting, so you aren't really using find but a subset of it provided by busybox. BusyBox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Assuming your system has the "line" command, you might try this:
Code:
find /raid0/data/nas_backup/media_deleted -mtime +30 -type f -print > /tmp/toRemove
while a=$(line)
do
   rm -f "$a"
done < /tmp/toRemove
