the -d option can't apparently distinguish between an actual folder and a disk (both show up in ls as a normal directory, at any rate)
Right... but it shouldn't ever need to.
Just stop making folders in /Volumes!

(yes... you) ;)

i.e., as long as there is no folder there *now* - - - then

[[ -d $target ]] || exit 1
rsync . . .

stops rsync from making one.
Have you *tried* this yet?

And I'll assume (when you just say "the line") that
it was done in such a way that $target is defined.
