One of my external hard drives is no longer listed in the left hand column in Lightroom on my MacBook Pro, even though it is seen on my Desktop as well as Finder?

So, in the  past, this  volume was shown in the Folders Panel in Lightroom, in Library Module, yes?

 

On a MAC.

 

Have you changed the name of the external hard drive?

Do you mean Lightroom, or Lightroom Classic?

 

Do you mean the EHD is not shown in the Folder Panel of the Library Module, or it is not shown in the Import dialog box, or do you mean something else?

 

If Lightroom Classic, the Folder Panel is not a file browser, it does not show folders or disks, unless there is at least one file from that disk that has been imported into the catalog. So, is there at least one file from that disk imported into the catalog?

Yea, EHD is not shown in the Folder panel in the Library Module. I have Lightroom 6

As I said above:

"the Folder Panel is not a file browser, it does not show folders or disks, unless there is at least one file from that folder or disk that has been imported into the catalog."
