We're tracking a new ExFAT-specific filesystem bug in macOS Ventura. Erasing the volume is the only remaining recourse. macOS has documented functionality to remove that role, but that functionality does not work (FB7208067, Sept 2019).

Update March 2023: Apple mostly addressed this issue in the 13.3 update.

We reported this issue to Apple (FB9739492) in November 2021. In Ventura, this volume no longer appears in any of these locations, regardless of your Finder preferences to show external volumes in the sidebar, and regardless of any attempts to drag the volume explicitly into the sidebar. Prior to Ventura, the remaining Data volume would appear just fine on the Finder Desktop, and also in the volume list when you select "Computer" from the Finder's Go menu, but not in the sidebar. If you created a bootable copy of Catalina, Big Sur, or Monterey in the past, and then proceed with CCC backups to that volume on Ventura without specifically using the Legacy Bootable Copy Assistant, CCC will remove the incompatible System volume from the destination. Some backup volumes don't appear in the Finder (sidebar, nor Desktop, nor Computer) We cite known problems that Apple introduced in the new OS below. CCC 6.1.3 (and later), published in September 2022, is fully compatible with macOS Ventura. Paul M.Apple published macOS Ventura in November 2022.

Don't hesitate to get Carbon Copy Cloner if you are in need of a backup solution for your Mac - you won't regret the decision. Ultimately, he was able to identify the problem as being due to runaway crash reports from a faulty piece of software, and walk me through the steps necessary to get rid of the issue and assure a clean backup, and to give me some advice on next steps to deal with the disc replacement process. Over the course of three days, I exchanged a number of emails with Mike Bombich, who got back to me with analysis of my CCC log files within a few hours each time. But the thing that really makes me sing Bombich's praises is the quality of its customer support. The documentation is a model of clarity, and serves as an educational repository and resource on the philosophy of backup strategies that greatly enhances one's understanding of the product and its use. It does the job of providing a robust backup solution for your Mac in a clean, elegant manner. I can't say enough good things about Bombich Software's Carbon Copy Cloner.
