ReadyNAS 214 data corruption issue
I am seeing a very strange behaviour that results in corrupted files. My NAS (ReadyNAS 214) has been stable for years, until recently I found a single file had an error revealed via the logs followin...

Errors on md124 suggest that you've vertically expanded the volume at least 3 times (md124, md125, md126, and md127 all exist).
Normally I'd expect disk errors to go along with the btrfs errors.
How much free space to you have on the volume?

I wondered if the firmware upgrade and/or defragmentation might be the cause, but I observe others (including yourself) at least using 6.10.9.
I have several ReadyNAS running 6.10.9, and haven't seen any signs of BTRFS problems.

Thanks StephenB , yes this NAS has been expanded at least twice, although during the last upgrade I did upgrade 1 x 2TB and 1 x 3TB both to 8TB, so expansion probably happened on each upgrade (even though I saw it as one).
Right now, I have 7TB free of 14.54TB reported on the dashboard.

So lack of free space can be ruled out for sure.

Try running smartctl -x on each drive, and see if there are any disk errors that for some reason aren't in the logs.
