This error has got nothing to do with the internal flash so USB Boot Recovery won't help.
Can you try booting into volume read-only mode?

Tried booting into Volume Read Only mode from the boot menu and the boot process stops at the same point as a normal load, at right around 25 to 27%, and then displays the same btrfs_biomerge_bio_hook+a4 message.

Do you have a backup of your data?
- Kwilk6Dec 12, 2016Aspirant
Not all of it. I was using this NAS as a holdover for some data that was not being backed up until another NAS was ordered to store it.
Is this possibly a snapshot issue? Should I attempt to turn them off?
