    I don't think there's a better way to fix the filesystem corruption, though there could be a less painful way.

     

    Another option is to use paid netgear support at my.netgear.com.  They will charge of course.

Your logs show that your data volume is being forced read-only

Feb 18 18:53:30 Aboud_ReadyNAS kernel: BTRFS: error (device md127) in __btrfs_free_extent:6995: errno=-2 No such entry

Is your backup up to date?

    That would require a more in-depth analysis. I'm not sure.

        Probably your best option is to back up the data, do a factory reset, rebuild the NAS and restore the data from your backup.

         

        That is time-consuming, but is free and is sure to result in an uncorrupted file system.
