I'm connecting a MacBook Pro to my Imac Pro 27". Both are running Ventura 13.2.1. Following the update on both systems, I can connect the MacBook Pro to the Imac Pro, but the contents of the drives, both internal and external are not visible. Prior to the updates, all drives where immediately visible after connecting
iMac 27″, macOS 10.12

Troubleshooting Drives Note Being Seen:
Re-Mount the Drives:
Boot into Recovery Mode (Intel or Silicon) . Then, using Disk Utility, see if the drive is seen. If it is, then see if you need to click the “Mount’ button for it. Try rebooting once more. If of no success, then click unmount button, and then the mount button. Try rebooting once more.

Reinstall the macOS:
Performing a system recovery from a Time Machine Backup may work, as it would make setting to how they were, when you created the backup. But, before you perform that, I suggest that you perform a reinstall of the macOS.
Time Machine Backup:
1. Create a Time Machine backup prior to the reinstallation of your macOS, so that you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reinstall. Use an external hard drive that is at least 1.5 the total storage capacity.
Then...
2. Reinstall the macOS:
Nothing would be deleted. It's just that items that have become corrupted or deleted, would be placed back to where they should be. Go Here: How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support
Additional testing info: On the iMac Pro alone, all the drives are mounted and the content is accessible. If I plug in an additional external drive, it mounts and behaves normally.
On the MacBook Pro (M1 Max chip model):
External drives connected to the MacBook perform and behave normally.
Connecting to the iMacPro, login is accepted and the list of both the internal drive, and all external drives is displayed in Finder. I can select any of the drives, but they all show 0 items, and will not load any contents.
Will the recovery method work for this scenario? All the drives would be mounted from the remote system.
