Retire the old drive immediately and run deleted file recovery software.

[H] Files disappeared when moving from Win10 to Synology???

2017-08-14 Thread Brian Weeden
I am panicking. I just bought a Synology DS1817+ NAS and am in the process
of moving over all my files and stuff from my old server.

As part of it, I moved over a bunch of archive files that had photos and
backups of stuff. Used Windows Explorer to simply drag them over. However,
it only moved the folders, not the files They no longer exist on either
the original server nor the new NAS. The folders appeared on the NAS, but
none of the files got moved. But they did get deleted from the old server.

Any idea what the heck happened? I've moved plenty of other (less
important) files over without any problems, and I'm tearing my hair out
trying to figure out why it failed on the stuff I really cared about
keeping safe.
