I would have assumed BIOS spins all the disks up it detects before starting grub. I am not exactly keeping up with modern BIOS trends though (it is UEFI boot), so I could be wrong here. The disks containing the btrfs partitions are not used for booting, and are not used for / either. > Is it always the same disk, or a different disk each time? > > Same disk, which isn't terribly surprising - I only have one btrfs. It is RAID1, however I refer to /dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab - which should automatically bring in /dev/sdc1 if my understanding is correct. I am very doubtful it is btrfs' fault, it seems very odd regardless that I only encountered hard failures after converting to btrfs.
