If you get a new (or used) OS-6 ReadyNAS, you can migrate the disks to it. If the array is functional data will be preserved.
You can also purchase RAID recovery software that supports BTRFS, and off load data that way - for instance, ReclaiMe. https://www.reclaime.com/
The volume can be mounted for free on a PC running linux, and there are also mdadm and btrfs beta packages that should let you mount them for free in Windows also.
