I have an issue with 1 TB WD MyPassport external hard drive. I have formatted it to ExFAT about a year ago to make it accessible both in Mac and Windows, but it has been mounted to Orange Pi machine (running Armbian OS) for a pair of months.
In result, for an unknown reason Orange Pi appears to be the only machine which mounts my drive now, Windows and Mac computers don't see it at all. For example, in Mac OS the hard drive does not appear in disk utility and moreover does not even seem to have a device file in /dev directory.
I wonder if it is still possible to make drive available for Windows and mainly for Mac OS without reformatting it? Is there an efficient way to fix my drive in Linux?
Thank you!

First off, if you get yourself an account here, welcome to UNIX & Linux SE. How did you partition it? MBR or GPT? What device (or devices) does your Orange Pi create when you connect the drive? What is the output offsck -l /dev/sdb(replacing/dev/sdbwith the actual primary device name for your drive)?
