BTRFS Errors

[Landofx]

So I'm completely unsure of what's going on. I think my NVME drive might be failing? The steps I've already taken are:

Delete docker.img and rebuild from there

Full memtest for 24 hours to be sure it wasn't memory error

Balanced NVME drive.

 

The system starts functioning again after reboot but a few hours later it fails again.

Most recent logs attached. I have previous ones also.

So I just checked the disk in maintenance mode with the GUI tool of btrfs check --readonly. Then ran it with --repair and it seems to have repaired successfully.  Let me know if this was a bad idea?

Btrfs check --repair should be used with much care, it might make things even worse, a btrfs filesystem can quickly go bad with RAM issues, Ryzen with overclocked RAM is known to corrupt data, you should fix data and if it were me I would then backup and recreate that filesystem.

Forgot RAM was overclocked used to be a windows server. So I'll turn off XMP profile and then wipe and rebuild cache from scratch (you said backup and recreate, but if I just restored a backup wouldn't I reapply corruptions?) and I should hopefully not have issues again?

That's to fix the filesystem corruption, not data corruption if it exists, and if it's a RAM issue that's always a possibility, if you can recreate all data from scratch it's always better.
