Exfat isn't well supported by Linux, see attached screenshot of
gparted provuided by this mail. Without being mounted gparted doesn't
provide information.
When mounting it from command line I get

"FUSE exfat 1.3.0
WARN: volume was not unmounted cleanly."

and after that gparted can provide more information, see attached
screenshots of the other mail.

Btw. consider to use "tar --xattrs" when "copying" dirs and files to
an alien file system.
