Accidental Volume Deletion

#2
Depending on how 'quickly' it ran, it might be just the GUI label that has been deleted and this will have flagged your data for removal (ie marked the space on the discs as empty). If it took a long time, it may have wiped the data.

Your best bet is do nothing more (it might make it worse) - but either raise a support ticket with Synology or start trawling through / asking questions on the Community Forum
https://community.synology.com/enu

Probability is someone has done this before and since the forum contains some hardcore geeks, there might be a solution.

I know with QNAPs you can often use SSH & Linux to falsify the deleted information that removed the labels - but I'm not familiar that you can do the same in Synology.

The fact you were migrating at the same time might mean the DS1821+ has no idea the data is even there.

If you have spare discs you could try cloning your existing ones then use another PC / MAC to try a data retrieval using 3rd party disc recovery software and a deep dig. This way you're only modifying a copy and not the original data.

I wish you luck.
