Does it matter which one? Or does turning either one on cause this problem?

It's both. Here's a screenshot with what happens when I boot the NAS by itself and then turn on one EDA.

Have you captured a full log zip file? I am suspecting that the two EDA500 volumes are out of sync. Sandshark might have some suggestions (he has had EDA500s in the past, I have not).
FWIW, I think you must have vertically expanded your EDA500 volumes (that would explain the three eda1 RAID groups).

I have long ago vertically expanded. Probably 6 or 7 years maybe?
I do have the logs downloaded.- StephenBOct 10, 2022Guru - Experienced User
I suggest looking in dmesg.log, kernel.log, system.log, and systemd-journal.log. Look at the most recent boot sequence for errors related to disk, mdadm, and btrfs.
