because who knows when the drive won't work on Mac anymore. My recommendation if you have this issue, is to backup your drive, format it for Mac OS, and then copy the files back onto it.
I am bitterly disappointed with Apple on this one: I can however access my Seagate Expansion drive.
I was beginning to think that the issue was with the drive, but today I connected my 1TB Seagate NTFS drive and had the same issue - drive not connecting via Paragon NTFS for Mac, even after updating to Ventura 13.4.1. I've had to purchase recovery software for $70+ to recover my files now. With my first drive (a 4TB drive), I spent a fair amount of time troubleshooting the issue last night, and while the drive was still functioning in Windows, I accidentally made things worse when trying a terminal command from a support forum, which now means the drive isn't accessible in Windows either. I've had the same issue with 2 different Seagate NTFS drives.
