Should I have two HD's in Disk Utility?

After updating to Big Sur with seemingly no issues, just want to know if this is normal. Two Macintosh HD are showing. If not normal, what should I do? Thanks.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Your Mac HD is now in a "quarantined" volune, is read only and therefore far more secure and not accessible by anyone or anything. Your apps and other data are on the Data volume and you have access to read/write. Only the Mac HD will show on the desktop.
