You'll have to give more information. Are these drives with images that have already been imported (in which case they should appear)? Are these drives with no imported images (in which case they won't appear)? Do you perhaps see the drives as folders instead of drives?

Disk drives just don't "appear" in the Folder Panel. There has to be at least one photo imported into your catalog that resides on that disk drive. Is that the case?

Are you used to seeing them in the drives/folders panel in Library and not just the Import module?

Hey, @ShotBy a Marine. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out.

Where is the Lightroom Classic catalog stored, on the internal or external drive?

Just to be sure, ensure Lightroom Classic has the required permissions on the macOS: https://adobe.ly/43zB3AJ
