Whether or not the Sync servers have a backup of your data doesn't really make a difference with a hardware failure, your expectations of the Sync service isn't the way it really works.

Sorry, but you deleted your own data that was on the Sync server when you generated a new Sync Key. You need to better prepared for hardware or software failure by having backups of your data and with Sync, knowing your account name, account password, and the Sync / Recovery Key.

Sorry, when you get a new Sync Key your data is wiped from the Sync server as a security precaution.

Do you have any other non-mobile devices (like a different desktop PC or a laptop) connected to that Sync account? If so, your data is on that other device.

If not, keep in mind that Sync is not intended to be a "backup medium" for your Firefox data, it is intended to synchronize your Firefox data among multiple devices.
