So by migration, you mean just using the same drive in another system? That’s potentially a major data loss moment. You at the very least should back everything up before you try to “migrate” without copying files.
I don’t use Synology, so I can’t speak to the exact process you need to follow. But I imagine it will require you to format your drive if it’s somehow locked into Synology’s system in order to use it with something else.
It’s likely similar to reinstalling an OS. You have to back everything up and format the drive. It likely uses a different file system.
