I am running Nextcloud on RaspbianOS via Docker. I have it mapped (as sda1) to an 18TB external USB drive. The drive is formatted exfat and isn’t encrypted. In general, thanks to great documentation, everything is working well: I can upload, access from various computers, etc. The one confusing thing is that I can’t see the files on the external hard drive. I know they are there because I am able to access them via Nextcloud and can see the available drive space decrease as I add files in Nextcloud. It is almost as if they are hidden for some reason. Does anyone know what might be going on?
No, that can’t really be the case. Conversely, users may delete files in the file system and wonder why the Nextcloud database still recognises them.
Post a few more details. Where are the files located? Show the contents of the corresponding directory in the structure.
You can also search for them with the Linux command ‘find’. The ‘du’ command is also very good for finding directories by size.

Maybe also post your Docker Compose file as well so we have a better understanding of your volume mappings.
