FYI, dropbox, google drive, icloud, onedrive all work (as do several others).
The reason you are seeing two volumes is that the OS can't figure out how to concatenate all the drives into one. So, it see's two data volumes. But since there cannot be two volumes with the same name, it is calling one data-0 (which is the name of the MDADM RAID on which the BTRFS volume resides) Both of these contain your data, though fractured such that you can't get to it. So, whatever you do, don't think that destroying one will help. That would actually make recovery impossible, which StephenB hopefully can help you with once he looks at your logs.
ah ok, i sent him the logs. I cross the fingers and hope for a solution.
I won't touch anything
