Somehow my main phtoto drive is now a folder under "MAC" drive, this is the OS ssd, nothing to do with the drive named "Fotó", which is my important drive full of raws, and is a hdd.

I've read some help, to choose "Hide this Parent" and so, but it doesn't work... 😞 When I click on "Hide this Parent" on Volumes, the "Fotó" folder just disappears...

Any idea? LR 9.3, up-to-date

You need to restart Lightroom after you've hidden the parent. I would also advise you not to use accents in the name of disks, just to be sure. So don't call it 'Fotó', but just 'Foto'. I'm sure you will still understand what the disk is for... 😉

I've tried everything, restart Lr, the Mac, etc. Didn't help. If I right click on "Volumes" and Hide the parent, nothing happens, the folder does not "promote" / get back to independent volume. 😞 
(There was never a problem using the letter ó in the word: Fotó. Except an update a few month ago, but Adobe fixed that, so that is not the problem know, I have other volumes with simple letters with tha same problem)

 

The other problem know is, that Slideshow is soooooo slow in this catalog, I don't know why. When I start the slideshow, it builds up the preview, and that last for several more minutes, than before. I tried older catalogs, no problem.

After you have hidden 'Volumes', you must also hide 'Fotó'. That too is not a folder.
